Description
Step into a world where hats are more than fashion—each one has a story to tell. In this lively program, you’ll hear folktales and fascinating true tales of headwear, from the Mad Hatter and Alice in Wonderland to remarkable (and sometimes outrageous) hat history. Travel back to Victorian times, when hats could feature feathers—and even stuffed birds—then on to curious laws and customs that once made headwear practically mandatory. Along the way we’ll tip our brim to straw hats, status symbols, superstition, and style. Come for the stories, stay for the Mad Hatter’s Tea—and don’t be surprised if you leave looking at every hat in a whole new way.
