The Mashantucket Pequot Museum’s Outreach programs make history come to life!
Our traveling programs bring a museum educator with a variety of hands-on objects, photographs, and materials to illustrate Pequot peoples’ lives and activities as they changed over time beginning with a look at a 16th-century coastal village. Participants learn how the arrival of Europeans brought dramatic changes and explore the similarities and differences of Pequot people today. The program includes a Native perspective which did not change over time—the importance of respecting Mother Earth—because the way we care for the environment today impacts upon our children for generations to come. Presentations are 45 minutes. Our museum educators will tailor their presentations to the age group that you specify.
