Each year, on September 16th, the Museum celebrates the birthday of Orton Camp with a special lecture, which will take place at 2 PM in the History Gallery this year.
During Free Museum Admission Day & Lecture in honor of Orton P. Camp Jr. you can travel back in time on a tour through the Mattatuck’s History Gallery! Learn about the first peoples of the area, where the Mattatuck got its name, and how Waterbury grew to be an industrial power house for brass and buttons! Get hands on with objects from the collection to bring the Brass City’s history to life.
