“"They took all the trees put 'em in a tree museumAnd they charged the people a dollar an' a half just to see 'em"(Joni Mitchell)The Fairfield Museum is undergoing renovations and we could just see two exhibits. The admission fee was accordingly waived for us.One exhibit was on quilts. The exhibits were drawn from their extensive textile collection. These colorful scenes of early New England life were gorgeous. If you ever wanted to know how quilts are pieced and stitched together or if you're just a quilt lover, you will enjoy this exhibit.The second exhibit was a biggie -it drew a TV crew (Cable Connecticut 12) into the room to film a segment. Guess who made a 2 second guest appearance in their piece?Ever seen those childrens books abiut "Busytown" by Richard Scarry? He was a Fairfield native and quite a few of Fairfield's businesses and landmarks ended up in those books.The exhibit is an immersive experience that allows you to select one of his animal cartoon figures and walk through the colorful streets of Busytown. You can teach your kids how communities work, what jobs people have, learn about transportation and all kinds of interactive exhibits- think opening doors and reading things inside the door.This has got to be a blast for kids or a nostalgic visit for anyone who grew up on Scarry's books.”
