Talk of the Town: Historic Clothing & Beadwork
Date Thursday, April 24, 2025
Time 11 AM-12 PM
Location NUMU | 106 E. Main Street, Los Gatos, CA, 95030
Cost Free with Admission
Bob Haven, miniature artist, Tambour Beading expert and historic clothing aficionado will spend several days delving into the NUMU collections, sharing his expertise regarding our vintage and historic clothing and accessories. Our staff will learn more about historic fashion trends, materials and construction techniques, enabling us to more accurately describe and care for the items in our collection.
On Thursday, April 24th, we are pleased to offer two amazing opportunities to learn from Bob:
In the morning (11 AM-12 PM), he will share with our visitors about the work completed during the previous few days, highlighting particular items of interest and teaching us all how to “look” at garments and accessories.
In the afternoon (2-4 PM), NUMU invites our community to bring in their personal vintage and historic (pre-1950) garments and accessories to learn — directly from Bob — more about the fabrics, techniques, time periods and fashion history.
