Throughout its 115-year history, The Hartford Conservatory has provided a nurturing environment for emerging performing artists such as, from left to right, Mario Santos , Jordan Bartucca and David Hiestand . 

Located in the same Asylum Hill neighborhood as The Hartford Financial Services Group, the Conservatory found its best insur- ance coverage with The Hartford. Pat Priest, an agent with the Webster Insurance Agency of Wallingford, CT, notes that as a non-profit organization, having the right coverage at the right cost is critical to the Conser- vatory. “The Hartford was able to provide that,” Pat points out. 

Jackie Rowley, Director of Finance for the Conservatory, is pleased to “have everything with one company. It’s a lot easier for us and The Hartford has such a good reputation.” 

Pat notes that, from the agent’s point of view, “the ease of working with The Hartford’s online quote system is a plus. It offers immediate underwriting guidelines for quotes, is quick and precise, and includes broad coverages for each client’s needs.”
