The Chaparrals who play regularly at the Carousel Museum, will perform country western and soft rock dance music live from 7 until 11 p.m. Admission is $12, BYOB.
Open House Day is a way for you to experience all the state has to offer and to encourage you to take pride in sharing your new discoveries with visiting family and friends. The annual event is coordinated by the Connecticut Office of Tourism, a division of the Department of Economic & Community Development.
