This year, Oshawa is celebrating 100 years as a city. In 1924, celebrations included parties, picnics and gatherings throughout the city.
In partnership with The Costume People, the Oshawa Museum will host a 2-day workshop to construct a summer hat - suitable for any 1920s-themed event! All materials are sourced from quality millinery suppliers and provided to make the hat, but participants must bring their own sewing kits (including needles, thread, pins, scissors and a 6-inch ruler.)
On day one, the sinamay hats are cut, shaped and assembled; on day two, the binding, sash, flowers and lace are added.
When: Saturday, April 13 AND Sunday, April 14
Time: 9 a.m. – 3:30 p.m.
Cost: $80 per person
Registration is limited to 10 people; 5 people are required to run the workshop. Must be 18+ and proficient with hand sewing.
