Join us, tonight, Thursday, March 19 at 7pm for this presentation by the Dirty Blue Shirts!

Underpinning the sensationalism of battle reports & broadsides is the often silent steadiness of women’s work with textiles. From the mythology of homespun to legends of midnight rides in red cloaked & calashes, costumed historians share stories of the women who waged war on multiple fronts as well as look at wore they wore as their worlds turned upside down. This Semiquincentennial fashion & fabric show includes reproduction clothing pieces & cloth samples as well as a PowerPoint presentation with images of extant originals.

Doors open at 6:30 and additional parking can be found in the rear of the building. The program is free to members, with a suggested donation of $5 for others. Refreshments will be served.
