Judy Wyman KellyLast Tuesday morning, a group of the library’s adult English language students went for a tour of the majestic Hartford City Hall, located just across the street. The place is amazing!
Veteran Hartford resident and current town clerk, John Bazzano,
was our guide. Constructed in 1914 on land donated by Hartford resident and
financier, J.P. Morgan, this city jewel boasts exquisite turn-of-the-century architectural
designs, including marble stairways, gilded décor, and vaulted glass ceilings. The Christmas tree made from red poinsettias
added some nice holiday cheer.
But more importantly, we had a chance to find out what City
Hall does for Hartford residents, such as providing birth, marriage, and death
certificates, property deeds, and voter registration cards. City Hall is also home to the Mayor’s office and
is the place where city laws are passed by the city council. We had a chance to visit these rooms and even
sit in the city council chairs! Hartford
residents are welcomed to go to the Mayor’s office with any questions or needs,
and to attend city council meetings on the second and fourth Monday of each
month at 7pm.
Wedding photography has come a long way from it’s early roots. If you’re dreading the time

that you’ve got it pretty easy compared to couples in the early days of wedding photography.
So, humor the parents and grandparents who want a traditional portrait or two. These days it
only takes a few minutes to give them that cherished memory.
