Join the Committee on Human Rights and Opportunities at the Stowe Center for Literary Activism for the opening event of the Connecticut CHRO Civil Rights Museum on Wednesday, August 12, from 6-8PM!

The Connecticut CHRO Civil Rights Museum will aim to tell the story of Connecticut’s role in the Civil Rights Movement and the state’s pioneering social justice and antidiscrimination laws.

The CHRO is the oldest governmental civil rights agency in the nation. Through this museum project, the CHRO will work with State and Federal partners and Connecticut businesses to educate stakeholders and residents about civil and human rights law enforcement.

Join us for speeches, the viewing of the document that created the oldest governmental civil rights agency in the nation, refreshments and more!
