Love the old barn and the artwork. Nice to have a little tour of them, sharing what each one is. The wine was enjoyable, one red and one white.

This was a nice, clean state park. Unless you're into water sports there didn't seem to be much to do, but the scenery was nice.

Both my husband and I were completely impressed by the level of performance we were treated to. From the talent of the performers to the excellent musical accompaniment, to the costumes...all were excellent. For those who have not visited Seven Angels, I would strongly urge you to support this wonderful artistic venue that we in the Waterbury area are so fortunate to have!
6. OEC Brewing

We've been to the brewery twice so far and each time the beers have been very good and definitely unusual. The place brews sour beers so as long as you enjoy sours and/or enjoy trying something different then this place is for you. The place is state of the art - one of the nicer breweries we've been to (definitely one of the nicest in CT). It didn't state on the website if you could bring your own food in, but while we were there people were eating so it looks like it's okay to do. The place is large with a bar seating area and a bunch of tables to sit at. The prices are higher than normal breweries, so just bare that in mind. We did a tasting of seven beers and it came to $17.50. They charge per tasting glass, so if one of the beers doesn't interest you - just skip it. The beers yesterday were all higher ABV so two people splitting one flight was more than enough.
Pretzels and chips were available for purchase as well as growler fills and guest bottles they have on hand.

Patti's Paintbrush is a very unique art gallery and gift shop. It features prairie style home decor. One can find original art, signed American pottery, handmade jewelry, and hand painted furniture samples for the purpose of getting commissions in homes and corporations. Patti Dahl works with decorators creating murals generally on new construction sites.The inventory changes weekly.

What an awesome find! Patti’s Paintbrush is a treasure trove waiting to be found! Tucked away on the second floor, this shop is well worth the climb up colorfully painted stairs (which are a small taste of Patti’s far ranging artistic powers). Once upstairs you’ll find a beautiful selection of one of a kind, handmade pieces - both crafted and curated by the owner. The space is cozy, but I was amazed at the wide selection of items creatively tucked in every corner. You’ll find jewelry, pottery, paintings, furniture and more. There really is something for everyone! I picked out several pottery pieces that look amazing in my new home, there are plenty of items to fill a fishing lodge or man cave - you may even find that crowning piece of jewelery you’ve been looking for to complete your look. This is a great place to find something for that hard to shop for person on your Christmas list this year.
Definitely worth checking out!

Always a fun place to stay, there's easy trails by the sites and a little beach, park rangers drive by usually once an hour if you need help. Very pretty and lots of kids running around!

My family and I enjoy hiking the trails at the nature preserve. There are some nice hikes through the woods and good look-outs over ponds. The maple sugar shack is fantastic, with tours during the season (check the website, but usually Feb-Mar). They collect their own sap on-site and have a still. The syrup is delicious!
10. Mattatuck Museum
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 65 reviews
The Mattatuck Museum was established as the Mattatuck Historical Society in 1877 to preserve the history of that part of Connecticut "anciently known as Mattatuck" - roughly the ten town region surrounding present-day Waterbury. In 1984, the Museum purchased its current building, a former Masonic Temple, and engaged noted architect Cesar Pelli to transform the 75,000 square-foot building into the Museum. The Museum’s collections and special exhibitions help us to tell the stories of our community in partnership with neighborhood associations, ethnic organizations and regional manufacturing groups. Our art galleries display the work of American masters such as Frederic Church and John Frederick Kensett; Joseph and Anni Albers; Cleve Gray and Alexander Calder. We also present numerous changing exhibitions each year. The Museum is also home to a button gallery displaying 10,000 miniature works of art collected from around the globe.

Extensive history of Waterbury, including artifacts. Understand that Waterbury's grade school students come to the museum each year. Have a small but rotating painting-sculpture collection. Each year seem to have a 'big name' artist exhibit. Web site also has children/family events. Don't rush through it.
