Stop into Phelps-Hatheway's Visitor Center for the Season of Change art exhibition by Laurie Tavino and Ray Pioggia. In this exhibit, photographic and hand-rendered images in color and monochrome depict scenes and themes from locations throughout Suffield - a number of which are views that no longer exist.
Floristry doesn’t need to end when the gardens have gone to rest! Join site administrator Lynn Mervosh and staff for a holiday bulb workshop that will brighten the shortest days of the year. Lynn will share the history of these bulbs and how to encourage a long-lasting display. The Phelps-Hatheway School of Floral Arts was created to showcase the magnificent blooms grown in our small community and in our great state of Connecticut. All ages and abilities are welcome!
Now an annual tradition, the Phelps-Hatheway Holiday Walking Tours return to close America’s 250th celebration with newly uncovered stories of our place in the emerging nation. Join our costumed guides as they transport guests to the time before electricity illuminated our homes to see the “grand dames” of this historic thoroughfare festively lit and decorated to celebrate the season. During the walk, you’ll gain insight into the dominant architectural styles of the historic district and hear tales of those who worked the land and supported the community throughout the ages.
