Celebrating 80 Years of the Danbury Museum!

It seems like just yesterday we were celebrating our 75th Anniversary! We know you ❤️‍ Danbury just like we do, so our special exhibit opening this June--indoors and out!--will showcase 80 items that help us tell the story of Danbury. Danbury (Re) Discovered: Eighty Years :: Eighty Objects :: Eighty Stories is coming soon! Stay tuned. . . 

Thank You!

 The Danbury Museum staff, Board of Trustees, and volunteers are most grateful for the generous operating support that has been provided to the Danbury Museum from CT Humanities with funding provided by the Connecticut State Department of Economic and Community Development/Connecticut Office of the Arts from the Connecticut State Legislature. This grant enables us to keep our small staff working, our bills paid, and allows us all (staff, board, volunteers) to continue the mission-based work we love to do. 


Many thanks to our entire legislative team for making this possible! #CTCulturalFund, #CTHFunded, and #ctarts

Savings Bank of Danbury Partners with the Danbury Museum on Rehabilitating the Charles Ives Home to Celebrate Shared History

In honor of their 170th anniversary, the Savings Bank of Danbury will sponsor Phase III of the rehabilitation of the Charles Ives Home, an important piece of Danbury and the Bank’s history.


“This project is only possible because the Savings Bank of Danbury chose to tell the story of their history through our Danbury Museum,” said Brigid Guertin, Executive Director of the Danbury Museum and Historical Society.  “Their story is part of the history of Danbury and they continue to be a strong supporter and member of our community. The result of our efforts will be a world class destination that we can all be proud of.”
