Fun with Fans & FashionFun with Fans & Fashionat Eckley Miners’ Village

Did you know that in Victorian times, long before the age of emoticons

and online chats, handheld fans served as more than cooling instruments?

Ladies would fl ip, fold and fi ddle with fans to send secret messages in social

settings.

Learn about this early form of “texting,” and see fi ne Victorian fashions

during the upcoming Victorian Fashion Show at Eckley Miners’ Village! This

exciting, interactive event will take place at the Village’s Sharpe House on

Saturday, May 25 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

Queen Victoria’s Court will present Edwardian-Era clothing, including fi ne

combinations of lace, adornments and fabrics. The period-perfect presentation

will feature expertly-replicated ensembles, including everything from

strategically-tilted hats to Victorian-Era hairstyles and the essential handheld fans.

Admission to the Victorian Fashion Show costs $10 per guest. Seating is limited. Tickets can be purchased

from the Museum in advance or on the day of the event while supplies last. Complimentary tea and cookies will be

served after the show, and the Hazleton Garden Club will offer herbs and plants for sale.

Eckley Miners’ Village Museum is located three miles south of Route 940 in Luzerne County. For more

information, visit www.eckleyminersvillagemuseum.com or call (570) 636-2070.
