One of the major attractions in the exhibit is the section on Darien’s “Guild of the Seven Arts”. The exhibit looks at how the development of Magazines, Victrolas, and radios created an artistic boom in the area, many of which headed to Darien! The guild was the second artist’s guild formed in New England, and it continues to impact Darien’s culture today.

Cloven Hooves – Fairfield County’s Devil’s Den Preserve

Redding 8-12

The Den is the largest preserve in Fairfield County. It’s also one of the most popular, with over 40,000 visitors a year. It is named for a spooky marking in a large stone on the preserve; charcoal makers in the area used to say the hoof-like mark was made by the devil himself. The site is said to have been used as a hunting ground for the Native Americans as long as 5000 years ago. Some of the wildlife that can be found there includes bobcats, coyotes, copperhead snakes, red foxes, as well as a large variety of birds and waterfowl. The location was even used as a hideout at one point! In April of 1777, residents of Weston and Redding hid in the preserve to evade British troops sent to the area to destroy a military supply depot in Danbury. If you’re looking to escape having to move all of your stuff by yourself for your next relocation, give Seamen’s Moving a call. We’ll make your move a walk in the park.
