A taste of history of a New England town. A small building stocked with information about Westport, a fascinating place with a history of being settled by artists, actors, (Betty Davis, Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward, etc.) and musicians. F.Scott Fitzgerald lived in Westport and scenes described in "The Great Gatsby" as though in NY, actually describe a portion of Westport. The people managing the museum are highly knowledgeable and friendly.
