About the event

Never leave home without it: Hats from the 1930's to 1950's - An Exhibit
Prior to the mid 1960’s no respectable woman would be outdoors without a hat. The sun might damage one’s skin or the wind could mess up a hairdo. Even in the 1940’s when women worked in factories for the war effort, scarves were worn to keep hair in place. When money was scarce, like in the Depression years, many women repurposed old hats or made new ones from upholstery and carpet scraps. When feathers were outlawed, designers turned to sequins and eventually faux feathers.

Extreme History has received a generous donation of hats from the 1930’s to 1950’s. There may even be a hat from the Roaring ‘20’s. Twelve hats are on display this summer. We invite you to come to the exhibit opening Thursday, July 10 from 6-8pm at EH headquarters, 234 E Mendenhall. Depression Era refreshments will be served. See you there!
