Stitching Stories

Textiles in Conversation 

Stitching Stories features a wide range of textiles, some from the Society's permanent collection, and some made by artists working today. The historic textiles date from the mid-18th century through the 1960s. Curious visitors will discover connections between these and the contemporary textiles, and between their own lived experiences and those of days gone by. This is part of a new initiative, Contemporary Meets Colonial, which marks the first time the Society will integrate contemporary art into the period rooms of Buckman Tavern.
