February 1, 2024 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

Forgeries, theft, arson, and murder — our museum is full of artifacts that tell stories of long-ago crime and punishment. Bring your best pal or significant other to the museum for a custom tour focusing on true historical crime stories, then relax with snacks, wine, and games that will test your crime-solving skills.

Tickets are $15 per person.  $10 for Connecticut Museum members, free for NARM-level members of the Connecticut Museum.  Space is limited, and preregistration is strongly recommended.
