The circus fire has lived in the memories of survivors and the imaginations of residents of New England ever since. In this presentation, photos and artifacts from the Connecticut Museum’s collection will help tell the stories of that day.
The presentation will examine the ways in which Connecticut has continued to identify, honor, and bring justice to the victims in the intervening decades.
