The Quinnipiac Dawnland Museum brings visitors on a journey through 14,000 year of Indigenous life through the display and of use of artifacts donated to the Dudley Farm by long-time Farm member Gordon Brainerd. They help to explain why Indigenous people successfully adapted to tremendous environmental and climate changes over all those years.
Contemporary work by Indigenous artists, poets, and writers bring to life Indigenous belief systems and lifeways prior to the arrival of Europeans beginning in the early 1600’s.
