The Lewis Walpole Library's latest exhibition has been curated by Alison FitzGerald, Associate Professor in the Department of History, Maynooth University, Ireland. Open Wednesdays 2-4:30 pm and other times by appointment. On view March 5 through August 22, 2025.

This exhibition explores the range of spectacular shows that were offered to the fee-paying public in Georgian London, from exhibitions of paintings, to scientific demonstrations, to the display of wondrous animals. The exhibition primarily focuses on images drawn from the extensive collections at the Lewis Walpole Library that announce, depict and satirize what people paid to gaze at. It will consider how derogatory ideas about spectacle were expressed in caricatures and political discourse.

Wed like to recognize their contributions and thank them for their service to all of us. Share your nomination with us and let's celebrate their contributions!


Hope Emery was one of those Heroes. She made working, raising kids and volunteering look easy and fun.

To further that legacy, and commemorate our 60 years of service to the community, we are hosting a fundraising dinner to celebrate the accomplishments of other Heroes who, like Hope, have dedicated their time and resources to Helping Others Prosper Everyday in Farmington/Unionville.


The Hero who receives the most nominations will be honored with a custom portrait painted by Kate Emery, a renowned local artist and Hope's daughter, serving as a reminder of the profound impact one person can have.

Encouraging Confidence, Boundaries, and Lasting Growth

With Rebecca Cohen, Master’s Level MFT Intern, in collaboration with Jennifer Hoffman, LCSW


Date and time: Sundays 4:30-6:00 PM, 4/6-5/18 (No group held on 4/20)

This 6-week closed group for girls ages 14-16 is designed to help participants strengthen their sense of self, develop assertiveness, and navigate friendships and family expectations with confidence. Participants will benefit from a small group setting that combines structured activities to explore their narratives with open space to process their feelings. Snacks are provided and members will leave with skills to uphold their resilience and emotional wellbeing.

-What participants should bring: All supplies are provided! Participants should bring a desire for growth and meeting like minded people.

-Event Fee: $25 per session ($150 total) to either be paid weekly or in full before the first session (10% discount applies when paying in full). The mandatory intake fee is $40.

-RSVP Contact Info: Schedule an intake via call or text at 860-351-3075 or email at rebeccacohenmft@gmail.com
