Tuesday, May 27th at 6:30pm
Enders House, Schoharie Street
Join us as Caitlin Sheldon discusses and demonstrates the design and clothing style of a refined lady in the American Revolutionary period. Sheldon is a Saratoga Springs Public Library librarian and historical costumer who draws inspiration from the past. The self-taught costumer uses historical images of people from the past to fuel the ornate outfits she recreates. This passion has led to research that provides a deeper understanding of trends in fashion.
This program will be preceded by a short Friends of Schoharie Crossing meeting. Free and open to the public. Refreshments will be provided.
