NBMAA to Hold First Trivia Night

The New Britain Museum of American Art (NBMAA) is holding its first Trivia Night, challenging guests, “to test their smarts, and enjoy a drink while competing for prizes.”

“With a professional host provided by WhatTrivia?,” says the Museum, “participants will compete in four rounds of fun, with diverse question categories ranging from sports to history, pop culture, entertainment, art, geography and more.”

The event is to be on Wednesday, January 29, 2020 at the Museum. It will be held from 6:00pm to 8:00pm.

The Museum says that, “guests can register a team of up to 8, or walk in solo to join a team.”

The Museum says that, “Preregistration is recommended; register as a group by calling the Front Desk at (860) 229-0257, ext. 201. Individual registration and more information are available online at nbmaa.org.”

The Museum says that,

The top scoring teams will win prizes exclusive to the NBMAA, including access to the Museum’s popular social events, including First Friday and Craft Sippin’ in New Britain this March. Additionally, one of the winning teams will be awarded Museum Memberships, which provide perks such as free admission to the NBMAA and 10 other museums in New England, special invitations, discounts on programs, and more.

Tickets to the event are $7 for members and $12 for non-members. “A cash bar will be available with $4 beer and wine,” the Museum adds.

The New Britain Museum of American Art says that it

is the first institution dedicated solely to acquiring American art. Spanning four centuries of American history, the Museum’s permanent collection is renowned for its strengths in colonial portraiture, the Hudson River School, American Impressionism, the Ash Can School, as well as the important mural series The Arts of Life in America by Thomas Hart Benton. The singular focus on American art and its panoramic view of American artistic achievement, realized through the Museum’s extensive permanent collection, exhibitions, and educational programming, make the New Britain Museum of American Art a significant resource for a broad and diverse public.

The New Britain Museum of American Art is a world class museum, located at 56 Lexington Street, alongside New Britain’s historic Walnut Hill Park.
