Preservation Work Underway at the Nathan Hale Homestead
We look forward to welcoming you to the Nathan Hale Homestead. This year, we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the house’s construction. For several months beginning in April, the house and outbuildings will undergo significant preservation work led by Valley Restoration LLC, including window restoration, exterior painting, roof repairs, and more. Our team is working hard to ensure that the visitor experience will not be negatively impacted. Programs will continue as planned, but you may see work vehicles and scaffolding on site, and tradespeople may be working during your visit. Our primary concern is for the safety of our visitors, and all precautions are being taken to ensure that. Thank you for your patience as we undertake this important preservation work.
18th-Century Réveillon Wallpaper Conservation Techniques with Studio TKM Associates
Last week, Connecticut Landmarks’ Marketing & Communications Manager, Olivia, met with the conservators from Studio TKM Associates to discover more about conservation techniques used on the Phelps-Hatheway House & Garden’s 18th-century Réveillon wallpaper. In this video, the conservation team shares insights into 18th-century wallpaper-making techniques, discusses the importance of using the electromagnetic spectrum and digital microscopes along with their work with Dr. Erin Mysak from Harvard University, and explores a brief history of the Phelps-Hatheway House & Garden!
With support from the National Park Service’s Save America’s Treasures, the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and generous donors, we have reached 90% of our fundraising goal for this conservation project and hope you will consider a donation this giving season to help us reach the final 10%!
