Fashion, clothing, and textiles have emerged recently as important sources for better understanding our nation’s history. To mark Historic New England’s new exhibition, Myth and Memory: Stories of the American Revolution, we are bringing together scholars and curators from around New England to share stories about soldiers of color, patriotic women, and the Founding Fathers—and discussing what they wore and why it matters.
Doors open at 5:00 p.m. for refreshments. Exhibition galleries will remain open for attendees to explore after the program.
Members $20; Nonmembers $30. Log in or Join now to have your discount applied at checkout.
