Drawn Here: Stories from Hartford’s North End at the Connecticut Museum in Hartford

February 12 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm

A new major exhibition opening on February 12, explore the migration history and culture of Hartford’s North End through a series of original graphic novels developed by local students and professional artists. Creative writing and history come together to examine themes of movement, identity, and belonging.

The North End has been home to migrants for hundreds of years. The experiences of the Irish, Italians, Eastern Europeans, Black Southerners, West Indians, Puerto Ricans, and others who have made the neighborhood their home, whether briefly or for generations, add nuance and depth to our understanding of what it means to be American.
