CRRA has been teaching the people of Connecticut and the world about sustainability since 1993. We were "green" before being "green" was cool.

Want to see where your garbage and recyclables go? Visit the CRRA Trash Museum in Hartford and the Garbage Museum in Stratford to explore ways you, your families and classrooms can help reduce garbage.

Join over 50,000 children and adults who visit each year to learn how reducing, re-using and recycling our trash can impact the waste stream, conserve energy and natural resources and protect the environment.

Through hands-on exhibits, interactive activities and award winning educational programs, students of all ages discover that they hold the key to protecting their environment just by thinking before throwing something in the trash.

CRRA's education centers have received an $86,000 grant from the Institute of Museum & Library Science for targeted recycling education in Bridgeport, East Hartford, Easton, Waterbury and Westport, and to develop classroom resources, teacher workshops and educational software.
