Lecture and Exhibit at the McFaddin-Ward House McFaddin-Ward House summer intern Stephanie Oman will present her research project that explored the relationship between Ida McFaddin and her daughter Mamie McFaddin Ward in a lecture, accompanied by a display of objects, on Tuesday, August 19, 2008 at 3:00 p.m. at the museum’s visitor center located at Calder and Third Street. The lecture is free and the public is invited. Ms. Oman’s research material was culled from the women’s journals and correspondence from the museum’s collections and from oral histories collected by museum staff. She will compare the two women in terms of their stylistic choices for decorative objects and fashion and she will explore their personal relationship with each other. Capping the project, Ms. Oman will create a curatorial display of representative objects depicting the two women’s preferences. The display can be viewed in the visitor center’s main lobby for several months following Stephanie’s power-point presentation. 3:00-4:00 p.m. McFaddin-Ward House visitor center.  Beaumont .  Donda Thomasson, 409-832-1906 Click Here for details |
