The Mattapoisett Woman’s Club invites interested local residents to its February 19 monthly meeting for a unique presentation with professional textile conservator Kate Tarleton. Whether it’s a family christening gown handed down from generation to generation or a quilt recently purchased at an antique shop, the heirloom textiles in your possession require special care. Join Kate Tarleton and the Mattapoisett Woman’s Club to learn about the best methods for preserving, exhibiting, and caring for your precious antique and vintage textile treasures. Participants are encouraged to bring a textile about which they need conservation advice for the Q&A session following the lecture.
Visitors are welcome to attend this presentation which will begin at 11:30 am at the Mattapoisett Congregational Church in Reynard Hall. The Mattapoisett Woman’s Club is a civic, social, educational and philanthropic organization. Membership is always open to local women who are interested in the objectives and mission of the organization. For more information or questions please contact info@mattapoisettwomansclub.org.
