Victorian Revival Costume Party

TONIGHT!

Thursday, August 5th
6-9 pm

Held in conjunction with our Victorian fashion exhibition Bustles & Balustrades, this extreme costume evening is sure to be a dazzling night.

Despite their straight-laced reputation, the Victorians loved thrills and spectacular events. The results are Steampunk, Goth and Lady Gaga.

Come in any kind of extreme costume – if you don’t have anything in your closet, you can make a wild accessory here at the museum while enjoying light appetizers, refreshment and live entertainment.

This special event is included with regular museum admission, as part of the museum's 1st & 3rd Thursdays series. No reservations are necessary.
