The Tailor’s Craft

August 10 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

A man dressed as an 18th century tailor holds out a narrow strip of brown paper in both hands

Clothing historian Henry Cooke takes on the role of an early Boston tailor. Watch as he “takes the measure” of visitors, then sits cross-legged, fashioning waistcoats from luxurious fabrics and “slops” from coarse weaves.
