Man holding a lobster

Saturday, September 17
6:00pm – 8:00pm

Event Location: 18 Apple Lane, Roxbury, CT

Savor local Indigenous foods of lobster, clams, corn, and potatoes while enjoying drumming & dancing as performed by members of the Redhawk Indigenous Arts Council! In Native communities, festivals are often a way to both celebrate and give thanks. At this annual event, we give thanks to the many members, visitors, volunteers, and supporters who have helped to make our museum a success for more than 45 years. After you eat, get up on your feet to join the dancing!

We are very excited to announce that we are once again holding a Silent Auction during the Clambake! Auction items will be on display as we welcome guests to bid during the evening. Winning bids will be announced after the dancers’ performance. Big thanks to our museum supporters, local businesses, our Trustees and staff for organizing or donating these items!

Tickets are limited, pre-registration is required by September 15th.

Price of Participation

$60 for IAIS Member Lobster Dinner; $65 for Non-Member Lobster Dinner. $10 for Children (hot dogs, chips and lemonade). No tickets will be sold at the door.
