River Gods & Sturdy Yeomen: Connecticut Clothing in the Age of Revolution 1760-1790

Explore how clothing in late 18th-century Connecticut reflected social status, politics, and technology in this free talk at the Connecticut Museum of Culture and History. Henry Cooke uses men’s garments from the museum’s unique collection to reveal the lives of ordinary citizens and colonial elites during the Revolutionary era. This program is part of the museum’s “Made to Last” series, connecting historical artifacts with modern artisans. Space is limited, so reserving a spot is recommended.
