Decorative Textiles | Life on the Webster Farm: Work Days

October 12 @ 1:30 pm - 4:30 pm

October 12 – Decorative Textiles at the Noah Webster House

Most of the making of textiles was done out of necessity to clothing and household goods. However, decorative needlework, knitting, crocheting, and weaving was an early American art form. Come see examples of textiles from our museum collection and use the same materials to make your own creation!

Visit the museum on select Saturdays from 1:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. and enjoy live demonstrations from our experienced team of museum educators. Each demonstration will focus on a unique aspect of early American work and play. Stop by and learn about the trades and activities of life on the Webster farm!

This program is included in museum admission. Enjoy FREE general admission for children under 12 for this event!

September’s Work Day will focus on apples! For more information, please email [email protected].

Thank you to our 2023-2024 Sponsor, the Rotary Club of West Hartford!
