Zoom at Noon: What's That on Your Head? An Art History of Hats! - March 16, 2021

Using paintings, sculptures, prints, and photographs this presentation jumps through history and the evolution of headwear. Hats communicate hierarchy, provide protection, express fashion, and identify people's social and political positions. Old designs evolve and take on new meanings.
