Lesson Plan #3 This year the Knights of Columbus organization based in New Haven is offering a quincentennial exhibit at the Supreme Council Headquarters Museum. This exhibition is entitled “Collecting Columbus: A Link To Yesterday s World”. It will run from May, 1992 through October, 1993. Paintings, engravings, postage stamps, medals, coins, and scholarly texts from all over the world will commemorate Columbus-s expeditions. A special collection of ceramic tiles that were brought to the New World by Columbus in 1493 to decorate the first Christian Church at La Isabela will be on display.

Therefore, a field trip to this exhibition is a must. For information regarding group tours, contact the office of the facilities manager at the Knights of Columbus at (203) 772-2130. A twelve page color brochure will accompany the exhibit and admission is free.
