Leave Your Mark on the Mountain
For six decades, Talcott Mountain Science Center, Academy, & Research Institute has inspired curiosity, discovery, and innovation in students who are shaping the future. Now, you have the opportunity to become a permanent part of that legacy.
The Talcott Brick Campaign will create a new commemorative walkway leading into Talcott’s main building, honoring the students, families, alumni, faculty, and friends who make our mission possible. By purchasing an engraved brick or supporting a commemorative bench, your gift will help create a lasting tribute that welcomes future generations of learners.
Leave your mark on the mountain and help pave the way for Talcott’s future.
