Best of Connecticut 2012 Guide

Not only will you learn everything you always wanted to know about the Mashantucket Pequots, you’ll have fun doing it. The tribally owned and operated Pequot Museum depicts the rich history of the tribe, as well as the history of the region and other area tribes, all through life-size walk-through dioramas, stunning exhibits—including permanent fixtures “The Arrival of the People” and “Life on the Reservation”—films and videos, live performances and two libraries, including one for kids. Talk about a cool way to spend an afternoon.
