1860's Garment Show

    The 1860's was a period when apparel revealed much about the wearer.  Muskets & Memories' Sunday morning garment show is more than a display of pretty hoop skirts.  It is a presentation of the many types of garments worn during the period by all ages of both genders.  A narrator provides information about the styles and fabrics for various occasions as well as a description of accessories.  From bride to widow; from soldier to undertaker; this show becomes a story of life during the Civil War.
