Staff Favorites Exhibition

Staff members at the Mattatuck Museum select and comment on their favorite pieces of art and history from the Museum Collection.

More about this exhibition

The Mattatuck Museum’s collection includes over 8000 objects, but what kinds of art and history are the staff’s favorites, and why? This exhibition features a wide range of objects drawn entirely from the Museum’s collection, each selected by a staff member and accompanied by their individual commentary. Including an array of paintings, prints, historical objects, and more, this exhibition brings old and new favorites out of storage. The comments and descriptions written by staff members bring fresh perspectives to these objects while also sharing their unique interests and opinions with visitors.
