With good reason; in 1692-3\, the Massachusetts courts sentenced 19 people to hang and tortured a 20th to death. Others died in Jail. But dozens and perhaps hundreds of people were tried for witchcraft in New England beginning over four decades before聽the Salem witch trials. Many of those trials occurred in Connecticut. At least sixteen people in Connecticut and Massachusetts were executed for the crime of witchcraft\, most of them women. This program will explore those trials and consider the ways that popular culture has represented that dark history. \nFor tickets and information\, visit https://torringtonhistoricalsociety.org/event/though-shalt-not-suffer-a-witch-to-live-witch-trials-in-early-new-england URL:/events/calendar/the-devil-in-new-england-witch-belief-and-witch-trials-in-the-17th-century/ LOCATION:Torrington Historical Society\, 192 Main St.\, Torrington\, CT CATEGORIES:Lectures ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:/events/wp-content/uploads/sites/181/2025/10/Witch-Trials-image.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20251027T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20251027T120000 DTSTAMP:20260614T094920 CREATED:20250826T132527Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250826T133903Z UID:10071402-1761562800-1761566400@www.wcsu.edu SUMMARY:Visiting Artist Lecture - Phoebe Jane Hart\, Interdisciplinary Artist DESCRIPTION:吃瓜头条 MFA VISITING ARTIST LECTURE WITH PHOEBE JANE HART\, INTERDISCIPLINARY ARTIST\nMonday\, Oct. 27\, 2025\, 11 a.m. \nVisual & Performing Arts Center\, Room 144\, 吃瓜头条\, Westside campus\nFree & Open to the Public\, Limited Seating Available\nRSVP to reserve a seat聽at www.eventbrite.com/e/visiting-artist-lecture-pheobe-jane-hart-interdisciplinary-artist-tickets-1595508812809 \nPhoebe Jane Hart is a filmmaker\, fabricator\, and stop-motion animator based in NYC.
