Alisa Dupuy from Ladies of History will present a lively program about Christmas traditions at the Clara Barton Branch on Wednesday, December 3, at 4:00pm.
During this program, we will meet Eliza Blackwell Dupree, a lady of the 19th century who will regale us with stories of Victorian Christmas traditions and reveal the secrets under the bustle gowns. Come prepared to sing a few Christmas carols, too!
The Ladies of History is a labor of love that grew out of a desire to study history, wear the fashions of different eras, and bring history to life in a lively and fun way. Established by Dupuy in 2006 as Historical Teas, Ladies of History has grown to include historical societies, libraries, bed and breakfasts, book clubs, social clubs, church fundraisers and schools.
