New Exhibit Coming to History Park!
It's a new year and we have a new exhibit coming soon to History Park -
Fashion to Die For: A Shopper's Dilemma, featuring selections from History San Jos
é's extensive textile collection.
From dangerous labor conditions, to the use of lethal chemicals and the killing of animals in the name of fashion, this exhibit explores the clothing and garment industry's past - with a particular focus on San Jose. Learn about some of the unintended consequences and victims from the fashion boom of the early 20th century, as well as the problems that still plague this industry and shoppers today.
Special thanks to our exhibit sponsors: Bonnie and Marvin Bamburg, Elizabeth and David Monley and Kathleen Watson!
Join us on March 19 for the opening of Fashion to Die For: A Shopper's Dilemma, on display at the Leonard & David McKay Gallery at the Pasetta House in History Park and stay tuned for more updates on this upcoming exhibit.
