Journal Issue: Journal for Learning through the Arts, 12(1) Author: Mercurio, Mia Lynn, Southern Connecticut State University Randall, Régine, Southern Connecticut State University Publication Date: 2016 Permalink: http://escholarship.org/uc/item/8dg4z02b Author Bio: Mia Lynn Mercurio is an Associate Professor in the Department of Special Education and Reading.

Régine Randall is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Special Education and Reading and the Coordinator of the Graduate Reading Program at Southern Connecticut State University in New Haven, CT. Keywords: Art Education, Content Area Literacy Local Identifier: class_lta_28850 Abstract: Through the study of The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire, pre-service art teachers learn the about interdisciplinary design and the importance of using discipline-specific literacy strategies alongside the materials and methods of their craft. The creativity and enthusiasm with which these pre- service teachers approached the work convinced us that some type of “art-making” in any content area classroom can be a valuable way for students to construct meaning from text.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Hartford Circus Fire Stories Retold at 70Th
    CONTACT: Rachel Gary Communications Manager 860-695-6352 [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Hartford Circus Fire Stories Retold at 70th Anniversary Hartford Public Library Performance Event (Emmett Kelly, famous circus clown, Hartford, CT, July 6, 1944/Image courtesy of the Hartford History Center, Hartford Public Library) HARTFORD, Connecticut (June 16, 2014) - On Tuesday, July 8, 2014 Hartford Public Library and the Jewish Historical Society of Greater Hartford, in partnership with the City of Hartford Fire Department, will present a specially commissioned theatrical performance based on the memories of survivors of the Hartford Circus Fire, a tragedy which occurred 70 years ago this summer. Performed by Hartford theater group HartBeat Ensemble, Inc., the piece is gleaned directly from retold memories of that terrible afternoon from its survivors, collected over the past year by the staff of the Library’s Hartford History Center. The event will take place at 5:30 p.m. at the Downtown Library, 500 Main Street, Hartford. The performance and moderated discussion that follows will offer opportunities to explore why the nation’s deadliest circus fire – which killed 168 people and injured nearly 700 - haunts us still. More than 40 percent of the victims were women and children under 15, and the cause of the fire has never been established. In a war-time city where family and social cohesion were treasured, the circus fire rocked Hartford to its core and left in its wake profound social change, landmark arbitration, and questions still waiting for answers. “We know that the Hartford Circus Fire holds a deep place in our city’s collective history, and we want to honor that,” said Brenda Miller, the Library’s chief officer for cultural affairs and public programming, as well as the executive director of the Hartford History Center.

  • Hartford Circus Fire
    Hartford circus fire Hartford circus fire Tent on fire Date July 6, 1944 Location Hartford, Connecticut The Hartford circus fire, which occurred on July 6, 1944, in Hartford, Connecticut, was one of the worst fire disasters in the history of the United States.The fire occurred during an afternoon performance of the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus that was attended by 6,000 to 8,000 people. The fire killed 167 people and more than 700 were injured. Background In mid-20th century America, a typical circus traveled from town to town by train, performing under a huge canvas tent commonly called a "big top". The Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus was no exception: what made it stand out was that it was the largest circus in the country. Its big top could seat 9,000 spectators around its three rings; the tent's canvas had been coated with 1,800 pounds (820 kg) of paraffin wax dissolved in 6,000 US gallons (23,000 l) of gasoline, a common waterproofing method of the time.[ The circus had been experiencing shortages of personnel and equipment as a result of the United States' involvement in World War II. Delays and malfunctions in the ordinarily smooth order of the circus had become commonplace; on August 4, 1942, a fire had broken out in the menagerie, killing a number of animals. When the circus arrived in Hartford, Connecticut, on July 5, 1944, the trains were so late that one of the two shows scheduled for that day had been canceled. In circus superstition, missing a show is considered extremely bad luck, and although the July 5, 1944 evening show ran as planned, many circus employees may have been on their guard, half-expecting an emergency or catastrophe.

  • Circus Fire Reminiscences
    INTRODUCTION Stewart O'Nan's The Circus Fire was chosen as this year's focus by the Town of Manchester's "One Book, One Village" project. One aspect of that project was the collection of oral histories from area residents who expressed a willingness to share their memories of July 6, 1944, the date of the Hartford Circus Fire. Most of the participants were interviewed at the Whiton Memorial Branch where their stories were recorded along with their photographs. Others shared their memories in telephone interviews or submitted written accounts of their recollections. These recordings and written summaries will be archived at the library for future generations. Appreciation is extended to all those participants who so graciously took the time to speak with us and to share their often painful memories. What follows are summaries of the stories of thirty-nine people who actually survived the tragedy or whose lives were, in some other way, deeply affected by the Hartford Circus Fire. They reflect the terror, the poignancy, the relief, the heroism, the sadness connected to that horrific event. IN PERSON INTERVIEWS Lynette Angel Lynette Wenick Angel was born in Hartford on 7/22/24. At the time of the circus fire she lived with her parents in West Hartford and worked at G. Fox & Co. where the windows of her department faced Hartford's Main Street. In the early afternoon of July 6, 1944 she and her co-workers began hearing sirens and watching as fire trucks, ambulances, and police cars raced north on Main toward Barbour Street. They had no idea what had happened, but with the war on, they feared the worst.
