As we move closer to our 90th birthday celebration this Saturday, we thought we'd share some trivia about the SM&NC's amazing history. Today's question:

Which iconic, food-related vehicle visited the SM&NC in 2003 to supplement the Pedal to the Metal exhibition featuring children’s pedal cars?

Once a preschooler, now an Eagle Scout!

Years ago, Sebastian Colfer explored, learned and played as a student in our Art, Nature & Me Preschool. Now, as an Eagle Scout candidate, he returned to the Stamford Museum & Nature Center to complete his service project — improving our Back Trail and building a new creative play platform for the children who follow in his footsteps.

We’re grateful for Sebastian’s hard work, leadership and commitment to making our campus an even better place for future generations. Congratulations, Sebastian, on this wonderful accomplishment!

Driskell, Jacob Lawrence, Faith Ringgold and Nelson Stevens, PRINTMAKING AND THE UNCONVENTIONAL PATHWAYS OF AFRICAN AMERICAN ARTISTS explores how generations of African American artists forged new paths to success by using printmaking as a medium for innovation, collaboration and cultural expression.
