The Grove Street Cemetery is many things: a site of memory and contemplation, a resource for studying the people and history of New Haven, and an arboretum with notable trees, but above all, it is a collection of geological specimens that were carefully selected and sculpted to mark the graves of local residents and families. A wide variety of sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic stones are present on the grounds, and the differences in their composition and character offer an opportunity to explore their distinctive qualities.
New Haven’s Dixwell Community House, known as the “Q House” was opened in 1924 as a settlement house for African Americans moving north as part of the Great Migration. It became a center for the historic Black community in the Dixwell and Newhallville neighborhoods for generations, providing a comprehensive set of community-based services for residents of all ages.
