SUMMARY:Daring Dinner Escape Room
DESCRIPTION:As a famous reporter investigating the rising National Socialist German Workers’ Party in Germany\, you’re not surprised to receive an invitation at the home of a top German General for a dinner party. After a tip that this General owns top-secret documents that could reveal vital information about what the Germans are planning\, you accept. Arriving early\, you sneak into the house and steal a glimpse of these documents before dinner starts. However\, you are on a strict time limit – the General and his dinner guests will arrive in 60 minutes. If you are caught with these documents\, the consequences will be dire. Can you find the information before you are found out?  \n\n\n\nThis is a great group activity! Wonderful for birthdays\, company activities or a club outing. Fun for the whole family\, this escape room is recommended for children over eight. Online waiver acknowledgment is required prior to entry into the escape room. Those 17 and under must have the waiver signed by a parent or guardian. Participants under 15 must have an adult ticket holder in their group.  \n\n\n\nTickets $20 for members\, $25 for non-members. Groups of 2-10 people. Reservations are required\, select your date and time online. Reservations close 48 hours prior to their posted start date. You may make your reservation private for an additional $10 per group.  \n\n\n\nTickets may be purchased with the online form. To book a private session or use your member discount\, please email the museum at info@westporthistory.org.  \n\n\n\nTime slots are available Tuesdays-Thursdays from 11:30 am to 5 pm; on Fridays and Saturdays slots run from 11:30 am through 8 pm. All reservations last for 60 minutes\, with the recommendation of arriving 15 minutes prior to your start time.   \n\n\n\nTickets are nonrefundable. In the event you must cancel\, we will consider your purchase a donation and will happily issue you a donation receipt. Groups arriving 15 minutes after their reservation start time will have their reservation cancelled without a refund. \n\n\n\nSponsored\, in part\, by Cohen and Wolfe

SUMMARY:Tuesday Treasure: Phonograph Cylinders
DESCRIPTION:Today\, you can listen to your favorite song with a few taps on your smartphone. Even if you’re a little more old-fashioned\, you can have a record or CD spinning within a minute or so. However\, the earliest lovers of recorded music didn’t have the luxury of such simple mechanisms. Phonograph cylinders were the earliest way people were able to record audio\, and the Museum will be sharing some of our own during our upcoming Tuesday Treasure showcase.  \n\n\n\nTuesday Treasures is an online programming series showcasing objects from our collection not normally on public view. See and hear the stories behind some of the most unique\, mysterious\, and impactful artifacts in our community.   \n\n\n\nTo watch live and ask questions\, join our YouTube broadcast here. Can’t join us live? No problem! You can watch this program and many others online for free on our YouTube channel.   \n\n\n\nLike our programs? We’d appreciate your support! Suggested donation of $5 continues our unique programming.  Visit our donation form.  \n\n\n\nWant to learn more about other ways Westporters were spending their free time at the turn of the century? Come see our Playful Pastimes exhibit that is currently displayed here at the Westport Museum!
