The British Are Coming! This Redcoat in CAM’s collection is likely the only surviving example of a British enlisted man’s uniform of this rank seized by the United States during the War of 1812.
Join us for a deep dive to learn about the coat and the Gloucester families behind the story.
Join us Thursdays for a unique experience. Led by a CAM docent, these deep dives into a single artwork or object from the Collection will begin with conversation, a short presentation and complimentary coffee at the Carlson Center, followed by a special trip to the James Center to view the object being discussed. No special knowledge needed! Just a curiosity to learn more in a small group setting and enjoy a unique experience.
