Using real human hair to create keepsakes for mourning may seem unusual to us now, but for centuries, it carried profound emotional and symbolic meaning. Although this art form reached its peak popularity in the Victorian era, its roots stretch back much farther. Join Zen Hansen, hairwork artist and founder of Hair Anthropology, as she explores the sentimental and mourning traditions that treated hair as a cherished material for preserving love and memory.Cost: $10 for Lecture only, $21 for Lecture and RAM General Admission
