“The Web They Wove” at Meeting House

In a living history presentation, the Dirty Blue Shirts share stories of women who waged war on multiple fronts and examine what these women wore as their worlds turned upside down. The choices they made every day about fashion and the consumption and creation of fabric drove the course of the Revolution just as determinedly as any Congress. Costumed historians present this program, which includes reproduction clothing pieces and fabric samples, along with a PowerPoint presentation. This is a Chester Library program.
