SUMMARY:Running for Office: Candidates\, Campaigns\, and the Cartoons of Clifford Berryman Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Exhibit runs Mondays – Saturdays though November 11\, 2023.  \nConnecticut’s Old State House will host “Running for Office: Candidates\, Campaigns\, and Cartoons of Clifford Berryman.” Election season in the modern era elicits a barrage of amusing and pointed memes – but historically\, editorial cartoons have swayed opinions and helped shape elections for generations! Clifford Berryman\, a Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist with The Washington Star and The Washington Post\, produced almost daily cartoons for over 50 years – from 1896 to 1949.  \nUnlike any other form of political commentary\, cartoons show altered physical traits and highlight minute details to make a specific point. With simple pen strokes\, they foreshadow the future\, poke fun at the past\, and imply hidden motives in ways that elude written or spoken reporting. This unique exhibit features a series of pen & ink drawings to highlight the timeless aspects of US campaigns and election processes. Running for Office was created by the National Archives with the support of the Foundation for the National Archives and organized for travel by Humanities Texas\, a state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities. \nThis exhibit is part of Connecticut’s Old State House “Go Big. Vote Local.” Series. For information about other upcoming programs in the series\, return to our events calendar. \nExtended hours until 8:00 pm on select Thursdays. On street parking is free on weekends. Garage parking is available at State House Square Garage\, 55 Market Street\, for $5 with validation.

SUMMARY:Witchcraft Panic in Colonial Connecticut
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, October 28th \nat 2:00pm \nJoin Richard Ross III for a presentation on the fascinating history of the Hartford Witch Panic between 1647 – 1663. Dr. Ross will discuss the events in England that impacted how the Connecticut Colony handled witchcraft allegations. What deep seated beliefs led to fear and panic amongst the colonists? What was the process to investigate these claims? Learn how the religious and political leaders of the time handled these charges … and what happened to the innocent people who were accused. Did they really form a pact with the Devil?  \nThis lecture is co-sponsored with the Ancient Burying Ground\, located in downtown Hartford. Additional Hartford Witch Trials Programs are offered in October. In Guided Tours\, view this historic site where many of the colonial magistrates and ministers were laid to rest.  \nRoss is the author of Before Salem Witch Hunting in the CT River Valley\, 1647-1663. This history examines the outbreak of witch hysteria in the Valley\, focusing on accusations of demonic possession\, apotropaic magic and the role of the clergy. Although the hysteria was eventually quelled by a progressive magistrate unwilling to try witches\, accounts of the trials later influenced the Salem witch hunts.  \nRegister and learn more here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdnsTsa5XpvJKZdBiN-0dPZ7nXVCm6VPpDrhBMiPytaBUPSNQ/viewform
