This spring and summer, the Port Huron Museum is featuring a new exhibit dedicated to Port Huron’s fashion past. Threads: From the Wardrobe of Port Huron’s Past is the result of the inventory process museum staff began last year, and it will be on display through July.
Lead exhibit designer Kayla Wendt said, “Threads is designed to appeal to a wide audience. The exhibit offers a glimpse of clothing throughout different time periods. I wanted to make sure there were local stories here that piqued the interest of everyone! You’ll see things like a scene of a 1920s summer picnic, and a night at the Desmond Theatre, but you’ll also see a scene of Service uniforms, and one of mourning attire.”
The exhibit includes some interactive areas where visitors can try on items and snap their own pictures with props and gear.
Entrance into the Threads exhibit is included in the price of admission to the Port Huron Museum’s Carnegie Center which is currently open from 10 AM – 4 PM Wednesday through Sunday.
