Book Talk

November 18 • 6pm • Free • Ages 16 + Join us for Book Talk, the Museum’s book club for adults! We will be discussing “Patch Work: A Life Amongst Clothes by Claire Wilcox” on Thursday, November 18. The author of this book worked as a curator in Fashion at the Victoria & Albert Museum for over 20 years. This beautifully written memoir unfolds in luminous prose the spellbinding power of the things we wear: their stores, their secrets, their power to transform and disguise and acts as portals to our pasts; the ways in which they measure out our lives, our gains and losses, and the ways we use them to write our stories. The Museum will provide refreshments for Book Talk. Have any questions about joining?
