We are named for Mark Twain's first short story, "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County." Our original location opened in 1983 on South Whitney Street The big store we inhabited throughout the 1990s on Prospect Avenue, and our current home at the Arbor Arts Center are all located less than a mile from Mark Twain's Hartford residence on Farmington Avenue, where he wrote "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," "Life on the Mississippi" and other books. This is our Fortieth Year and we hope for many more. Open daily by appointment.
