August 20, 2024

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to the Springfield Swans for their generous donation of $500 towards our featured exhibit, The Roaring Twenties: Flappers, Fashion, and Freedom. The Swans’ donation is helping us cover the costs associated with the exhibit and ensuring it remains accessible to the community.

Their support also helped us host a fun and exciting open house event. The event, a 1920s-themed costume party, was organized by our summer students, Morgan Kerr and Julia McCord, both university students. They worked hard to create a lively and authentic atmosphere, and the evening was a great success, with many attendees dressed in period costumes to celebrate the exhibit.

We invite everyone to visit The Roaring Twenties: Flappers, Fashion, and Freedom at 14 East St., open from Monday to Friday, 10 am to 5 pm. This exhibit offers a great opportunity to learn about the connections between fashion and social change during the 1920s. Thank you again to the Springfield Swans for their generosity and for supporting our efforts to preserve and share local history.
