I tried looking up anything but most of the stuff is around NY for Iranian communities. I did find out however UCONN has an Iranian Association that sometimes holds parties and events, but it doesn't look like their website has been updated in a while.
Iranian Assosiation of the University of Connecticut
You can probably still contact them to see if they still hold parties and events. They apparently have parties with Iranian music and food.

Foundation of Iranians of Connecticut also holds events and it looks like their last one was in December, so I'd keep checking their site for updates on other events. They also hold events with food, music, and culture. You can also become a member.
FIOC

Bombay Olive in West Hartford has Iranian, Persian, and Indian food. I've never eaten there but people say it's pretty good.

Hope that helps a bit, good luck!

Well I am Assyrian where my family came from Urmia. We do have Assyrian community that mostly came from Urmia Iran or from West Azerbaijan Province... Assyrian-Iranian community in New Britain happens to be oldest in the country and oldest Assyrian church in north america is also in New Britain. Which most of you here may not ever known that. This is the close thing I can get about Iranian community here. Just non-Persian from Iran.

Also try the Foundations of Iranians of Connecticut (FIOC).. they have a Facebook page and recently held an event last month for Yalda and will again in March for Nowruz. There isn't a concentrated Iranian diaspora or community in Connecticut, but there are thousands of Iranians.
