SATURDAY, MARCH 10, 2012
RIVERSDALE HOUSE MUSEUM
4811 Riverdale Rd., Riverdale Park MD 20737
WHAT TO WEAR? A GUIDE TO AMERICAN CIVILIAN CLOTHING IN 1812.
From 2012 to 2015, the U. S. and Canada will be commemorating the War of 1812.
This is your chance to put your love of Federal era history into practice as a
reenactor at local, national, and international events! Every living history
impression must start with what to wear. Attend one or all of these
sessions—for women, children, and men, where costume historian Dr. Ann Wass
will present illustrated lectures and a show and tell of patterns, fabrics, and
reproduced garments. There will also be authentic period garments on display.
Whether you are brand new to the period or have been interpreting for years and
want to fine-tune your kit, this day is for you. Bring a bagged lunch if you
plan to stay all day. We will provide a place to eat.
Women: 9:00-10:30 am
Children: 11:00 am–12:15 pm
Men: 1:00-3:00 pm
Advance payment required by March 7.
Fee: $6 for each session; $15 for all 3.
To reserve, call 301-864-0420 or email riversd...@pgparks.com
