Held over through December, our special exhibition, “The Hostess with the Mostest: The Art of Making Much with What’s at Hand” offers a unique look at local women’s history. The exhibit features both aprons from near and far as well as how various generations have been activated on local and national levels through women’s groups and national media. Can you survive in the Washington Wilds? What secrets did the famous designer Dorothy Draper reveal? How did advertising change to appeal to women? Find out in this fun and entertaining exhibit!
