Stitching Stories: Textiles in Conversation

Lexington Historical Society welcomes you to an exhibition of historical textiles from our collection ranging from the mid-18th century to the 1960s. This is part of a new initiative, Contemporary Meets Colonial, which marks the first time the Society integrates contemporary art into the period rooms of Buckman Tavern.

Nine contemporary textile artists are featured alongside the collection pieces, creating conversations between the old and new: Merill Comeau, Carson Fox, Ania Gilmore, Sandra Golbert, Carolyn Halliday, Gyöngy Laky, Adrienne Sloane, Kathryn Stanko and Darlene Wigton. We appreciate their participation and interest in our collection.

This special exhibition is included with admission to the museum!
