Little Poland in New Britain, CT was a great success and fun for everyone who attended. The Polish Center had a booth sharing artifacts and stories about our ancestors. Featured in the photo are L-R, Ken Lemanski, Vice Chairman, Stephanie Afonso, Asst. Curator and Christopher (Topher) Mattoon, Curator. Missing from the photo (who is probably taking the photo) is Jean Jonker and Sylvia Kuczek, both Board members. If you were there, hope you stopped by the booth to say hello.

Bet you didn't know the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City has objects of Polish history and culture. Museums have all kinds of special things. Stop by the Polish Center museum and see what we have on display. You'd be surprised.
