The Importance of Connecticut to the American Revolution

Presented by noted storyteller and journalist Mike Allen

Travel back 250 years to explore Connecticut's remarkable role in America's fight for independence. From Danbury and Ridgefield to Groton, New London, and Fairfield, discover how communities across our state helped shape the course of the American Revolution. Through captivating stories, Mike Allen, former host of the popular podcast Amazing Tales About History, brings to life the remarkable people and events that shaped our nation's fight for independence, including Roger Sherman, Israel Putnam, Jonathan Trumbull, Benedict Arnold, and visits by George Washington and General Rochambeau.

Discover why Connecticut earned the nickname "The Provision State" for supplying food, ammunition, and other vital resources to the Continental Army, and learn how the state's leaders and citizens made lasting contributions to the birth of the United States.

The Open House is free and open to the public.
