Item Description

Each year, using armloads of greenery and native plants, authentic decorations from days of yore, and some pretty clever food-styling tricks, the Webb-Deane-Stevens Museum decks out for the holidays. Here's your chance to win a 1-hour private tour with Executive Director Charles T. Lyle. Mr. Lyle, who has his M.A. from the University of Delaware, has over 45 years of museum experience. Before coming to the CT Dames / Webb-Deane-Stevens Museum, he was Executive Director of the Delaware Historical Society, the Maryland Historical Society, and Boscobel House and Gardens.

Located in the center of Connecticut’s largest historic district in Wethersfield, CT, the Webb-Deane-Stevens Museum provides the quintessential New England experience. Visitors are immersed in life of the mid-18th and early-19th centuries as they explore four remarkable colonial homes including the Joseph Webb House (1752), the Silas Deane House (c.1770), and the Isaac Stevens House.

The Museum, which first opened in 1919, is owned by The National Society of the Colonial Dames of America in The State of Connecticut (NSCDA-CT) and administered by the Webb-Deane-Stevens Museum Board.
