My site was finally designated an NHL in late 2023! We're thrilled and honored. Thanks for this wonderful video. We'll share it to help our community fully understand the importance and breadth of the NPS!

What is the site?

Barnum Institute of Science and History. 1893. It’s in Fairfield County, CT about an hour out of NYC.
Cheers!

This presentation is remarkably clear and informative. The beautiful photographs breathe life into what otherwise would be a dry and technical exercise. Also thank you for selecting tasteful and appropriate music. Well done.
