Cats & Dogs in Art and Life

New exhibit opens Thursday, September 27

The Connecticut Historical Society's newest exhibit focuses on our furry friends and how they impact our lives. The exhibit explores how cats and dogs have been depicted in fine art, folk art, photography and decorative art throughout history, including today. Images, documents, and historic objects will help tell the story of how our relationships with cats and dogs have evolved and changed over time as well as how they have inspired us, amused us, worked for us, and comforted us for centuries. Cats & Dogs in Art and Life is open through April 6, 2013. 

Don't miss our Furry Friend Pet Parade & Fair on Sunday, October 14!
