INUNDATED: Connecticut's Great Flood of 1955
August 1-29

In 1955, one of the worst floods in the history of the Nutmeg State raged through Winsted and surrounding communities. Eighty-seven people died while communities suffered over $200 million in damages. This month-long exhibit of photographs and artifacts drawn from Winsted, New Hartford, Torrington, Barkhamsted, Unionville and Collinsville historical societies and libraries invites audiences to consider how environmental events shape the nature of work and resilience. The exhibit is included with regular AMP admission. Fridays and Saturdays from 10am to 5pm and Sundays noon to 5pm. Part of AMP's year-long celebration of America250.
