Did you know that today is National Draw A Picture of A Bird Day? To celebrate, “This Day In New Haven History” takes you back to the digs of one of the primo manufacturers of bird cages in America, circa 1913. That would be the Andrew B. Hendryx Company, located in the heart of what is now the arts district on Audubon Street. Join your guides, TDNHH’s Allan Appel and the New Haven Museum’s Jason Bischoff-Wurstle, as they time-travel back to the Victorian era when everyone wanted to have a bird house or cage in their home, whether they had a parakeet or chickadee to put in it or not.
