SUMMARY:POSTPONED: American Silk: From Sericulture to Status Symbol
DESCRIPTION:This event is postponed. \nThe CMCH\, a Smithsonian Affiliate\, is excited to host a presentation by Madelyn Shaw\, Curator of Textiles at the National Museum of American History\, about the rise and fall of America’s silk industry. \nThe memory and physical remnants of the once important American silk industry are few and far between – even in Connecticut\, once one of its leading lights. This talk traces the use and manufacture of silk in America from efforts in colonial times to provide raw silk for the looms of Britain’s Spitalfields silk district\, to the transformation of the American silk industry as the largest in the world in 1920\, and its collapse during the Great Depression. \nDoors open at 5:00 pm. Before the talk\, be sure to visit our exhibition\, Pieces of American History: Connecticut Quilts\, which includes several examples of silk quilts. \nThe event is FREE and open to the public. Let us know you’re coming at rsvp@chs.org or by calling 860-236-5621 ext. 238. \nQuestions? Contact Adult Programs Manager Natalie Belanger at natalie_belanger@chs.org or call 860-236-5621 ext. 289. \nAbout the Speaker \nMadelyn Shaw is currently the Curator of Textiles at the National Museum of American History\, Smithsonian Institution. She specializes in the exploration of American culture and history\, and their global connections\, through textiles and dress. Her recent exhibition Everyday Luxury: Silk Quilts from the National Collection (NMAH)\, connected those quilts to the growth of the American industry. Her work on this topic also includes the case study “H. R. Mallinson & Company” in American Silk: Entrepreneurs & Artifacts\, 1830-1930. Her current focus is a partnership project\, Fabric of War: The Hidden History of the Global Wool Trade\, with Trish FitzSimons\, social historian and documentary filmmaker\, of the Griffith Film School\, Brisbane\, Australia. \nImage: CMCH 1976.19.0\, Silk Pieced Quilt\, after 1894\, made by Anna McConnell Shuldice \n  \n \n

SUMMARY:1950s in Vogue: The Jessica Daves Years\, 1952-1962
DESCRIPTION:Join us to learn more about Jessica Daves\, the enigmatic figure who first catapulted fashion magazine Vogue into modernity. \nWhen Daves became editor-in-chief of Vogue magazine in 1952\, she began a decade-long effort to elevate the world’s most influential fashion magazine to new standards. With a firm belief that “taste is something that can be taught and learned” and an even firmer conviction in the magazine’s “high regard for the best\,” Daves led a charge for excellence in the pages of Vogue. \nDrawing from the Vogue archives\, as well as rarely seen personal correspondence and archival materials relating to Daves\, fashion historian and writer Rebecca C. Tuite tells the complete story of Daves’s Vogue\, examining the magazine’s coverage of fashion\, interior design\, travel\, and more during that decade\, while also offering the first in-depth study of Jessica Daves herself. \nA small pop-up exhibit of period clothing from our collection will be on view! \n$10 for CMCH members\, $15 for non-members. Please let us know if you plan to attend by emailing rsvp@chs.org or calling (860) 236-5621 x238. \nContact Adult Programs Manager Natalie Belanger with any questions at (860) 236-5621 x289\, or email Natalie_Belanger@chs.org. \nABOUT THE SPEAKER \nRebecca C. Tuite is a fashion historian and writer. She is a doctoral candidate at the Bard Graduate Center. She is the author of Seven Sisters Style: The All- American Preppy Look\, which was featured in publications including the Wall Street Journal\, Paris Vogue\, and Vanity Fair. Her new book\, 1950s in Vogue: The Jessica Daves Years\, 1952-1962\, will be released in December\, 2019. \nPhoto Credit: Alec Helm\, courtesy of Rebecca C.

SUMMARY:Preventative Conservation of the First Ladies' Gowns
DESCRIPTION:The CMCH\, a Smithsonian Affiliate\, is proud to host a presentation by Dr. Sunae Park Evans\, Senior Costume Conservator at the Smithsonian Institution. \nDr. Evans will speak about the history of the First Ladies’ exhibitions and how the field of costume conservation has impacted the display and preservation of the costumes of the First Ladies at the National Museum of American History (NMAH) through the exhibition’s history. Because of public demand\, the First Ladies’ costumes have repeatedly been exhibited over about a one hundred year span. The museum’s addressing of American history has continuously changed over the decades as reflected in its research and exhibitions. It is worthwhile to look into the history of exhibitions\, since it will provide insight into not only the progress of museum philosophy\, but also the improved methods of displaying costumes as part of the museum’s preventative conservation approach. \nThe event is FREE and open to the public\, but please RSVP before June 12 at rsvp@chs.org or by calling 860-236-5621 ext. 238. \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Preventative Conservation of the First Ladies' Gowns
DESCRIPTION:The CMCH\, a Smithsonian Affiliate\, is proud to host a presentation by Dr. Sunae Park Evans\, Senior Costume Conservator at the Smithsonian Institution. \nDr. Evans will speak about the history of the First Ladies’ exhibitions and how the field of costume conservation has impacted the display and preservation of the costumes of the First Ladies at the National Museum of American History (NMAH) through the exhibition’s history. Because of public demand\, the First Ladies’ costumes have repeatedly been exhibited over about a one hundred year span. The museum’s addressing of American history has continuously changed over the decades as reflected in its research and exhibitions. It is worthwhile to look into the history of exhibitions\, since it will provide insight into not only the progress of museum philosophy\, but also the improved methods of displaying costumes as part of the museum’s preventative conservation approach. \nThe event is FREE and open to the public\, but please RSVP before June 12 at rsvp@chs.org or by calling 860-236-5621 ext. 238. \nQuestions?
