Using a 5-inch blank top-hat form and other items in your kit, you’ll learn to create your own reproduction of the hats and bonnets worn during the time of Toulouse-Lautrec, or create your own vision of a fashionable headpiece. Your imagination won’t be limited as you can choose from three design categories: Victorian (one color and accent), Goth, (black on black), and Steampunk (industrial and metal themes). Members $15, nonmembers $20. Fee includes all materials necessary. Seating is limited. Buy online or call 610-432-4333 ext. 132 by July 24th.
