Description

The Program, Areas, and Development Committees have joined forces with Webb Deane Stevens Museum staff to present brief talks by emerging and established scholars in American history, decorative arts, and fashion, followed by luncheons graciously hosted by NSCDA-CT members.

 

Dames are encouraged to bring prospective NSCDA-CT members, as well as friends who might be interested in becoming members of the Museum. We hope this will be an opportunity to show off the best of the NSCDA-CT and our distinguished WDS Museum.

 

All Dames and their guests are welcome to attend any or all of the four events, regardless of their home Area.

Online registration preferred, but those who need to pay by check should contact Sam Lee at slee@wdsmuseum.org or (860) 529-0612 x108 to confirm availability of seating.

 

Speaker: Emily Whitted, Ph.D. candidate at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. Emily received an M.A. from the Winterthur Program in American Decorative Arts in 2020 and was subsequently Lois F. McNeil Curatorial Fellow at the Winterthur Museum, Garden & Library. Her master's thesis and doctoral dissertation both examine early American textile repair work as an everyday practice integral to households, ships, and military camps.
