Take a self-guided tour of our new exhibit, "Images of a Forgotten Village - Valley Forge".
This exhibit is in partnership with the Weston Library Photography Club.
The picturesque Saugatuck Reservoir in Weston, CT was home to a small neighborhood called, Valley Forge. This once thriving community of mills, forges and farms has vanished from memory and sight. The only reminder being photographs. Join the Weston History & Culture Center and the Weston Library Photography Club for an exploration of this forgotten valley. Late 19th century images produced from glass plate negatives capture the people and places before the building of the Saugatuck Reservoir in the late 1930s. View images and video of the building of the Samuel Senior Dam and the transformation of the area. Modern-day photos explore the only clues left behind from this small, forgotten village.
Take a guided tour of the award-winning Coley House! On your tour, learn how the Coley family would have lived, worked, and played during the 1940s. Kids can play with toys and games from the 1940s, build with Lincoln Logs and type on an old typewriter!
Location: 104 Weston Rd. Weston, CT. Parking and entrance on High Acre Rd.
