INDIAN STYLE EARRINGS
By Cathy C. Shropshire
Cathy C. Shropshire is a Floridian and a friend of the Historic Stranahan House Museum. Cathy has a degree in Fine Art from Furman University. In addition to working with stained glass, she is currently creating one-of-a-kind Indian styled beaded earrings that are beautiful and so much fun to wear! She makes each pair by using the finest quality glass beads with color combinations that are strikingly beautiful.
Earrings are only $30 a pair! Buy a pair or treat yourself! Or both!
The Stranahan House Gift Shop has been featured on WSVN Channel 7's Style File, in the Sun-Sentinel, on VisitFlorida.com, in GoRiverwalk Magazine, and more! The shop is open daily and is full of one-of-a-kind handcrafted items created by local artists. It is the perfect place to purchase gifts with a local flair!
To learn about becoming one of our featured artists, please contact our Gift Shop Manager at 954-524-4736 or info@stranahanhouse.org.

The purpose of Stranahan House is to preserve Stranahan House as a museum, historic site, and social center for the community; to interpret Stranahan House through appropriate restorations, exhibitions, educational programs, and tours; and to promote Stranahan House so that residents and visitors of
all ages are aware of their opportunity to learn about the history of this region, thus furthering the social, cultural and historic viability of the community.
OUR VISION:
To be the focal point of the community by re-energizing the spirit of the past.
OUR MISSION:
The mission of the Historic Stranahan House Museum is twofold: 1) To tell the story of the birth of our community through the lives of two extraordinary people and the
homestead they created and
2) To serve as an enduring legacy for historic preservation.

Happy New Year, friends! We are excited for all the potential and opportunities 2013 brings us - here at the beautiful Historic Stranahan House Museum and across the great city of Fort Lauderdale!
We are kicking off the new year with a great new program - SEMINOLE STORIES - in partnership with our friends at the Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Seminole Museum (see the flyer below for the first program on January 16th!).
