Friendly staff, interesting collection, good for disabled people

My boyfriend and I passed this place while driving through town yesterday and both thought it looked neat, so we decided to stop by today and had a very nice time! Debbie, the receptionist/docent, was very friendly and knowledgeable. My boyfriend and I were looking at some paintings and realized that he lives right across the street from one of the old big clock factories, and Debbie helped us find some more interesting information about the building and its owner. This museum has a very wide variety of clocks spanning hundreds of years, and good information alongside each one.

I’m disabled and I had my cane with me, but I got tired fairly quickly without my walker or wheelchair to sit on. There is a wooden bench in Ingraham Hall that was good for a rest, though. I used the accessible bathroom shortly after arriving and noticed a (old but sturdy and perfectly functional) loaner wheelchair there. I didn’t expect a small museum to have one, but it was really helpful and enabled me to stay and enjoy the experience for much longer than I could have otherwise! The lower floor is unfortunately not wheelchair accessible, but most of the museum is upstairs. It would be nice if they added a video tour of the downstairs (viewable on the main floor), though.
