Explore the material culture and lives of self-liberated Black women in the 18th century and the society they inhabited. In this new collaboration, based on runaway ads from 18th-century newspapers, see garments worn by our actor interpreters and made by our Millner and Mantua makers. This event has limited seating due to social distancing. Please arrive early to secure a seat.
