Attendees enjoyed an engaging night of exploration, uncovering hidden treasures, sharing stories, and forging new connections in a warm, convivial setting.

Members of the Ridgefield Neighbors and Newcomers recently gathered at the Ridgefield Historical Society’s Scott House for a special evening of discovery.
