How is Mark Twain connected to Norwalk? Join Norwalk historians Madeleine and Ed Eckert to discover the connection during this lively lecture.

In this lecture, the Eckerts will uncover interesting historic and artistic connections between Mark Twain, Norwalk and WPA artists, one being Justin Gruelle.
This lecture was first produced as part of Connecticut's 2010 Mark Twain Centennial Project commemorating Mark Twains death.
