Lyman Allyn Art Museum

The Lyman Allyn Art Museum will inventory and digitize its permanent collection, which includes approximately 18,000 objects such as paintings, sculpture, works on paper, decorative arts and furniture, textiles, and toys. The project team will locate, identify, examine, photograph, and rehouse about 5,000 objects, creating new or more robust digital records in the museum's collections management database. The project will improve care and accountability for the museum's collections for staff and the public. Additionally, the initiative will upload object metadata and images to the Connecticut Digital Archives (CTDA) for long-term preservation and public access.
