Open House and Exhibit - "Clothed in History"

The Colebrook Historical Society will host an Open House on Sunday, June 1st from 3 to 5 PM, where they will unveil their 2025 exhibit - “Clothed in History”. 

Clothes from the past reveal much about the period in which they were worn and the people who wore them. On display will be dresses, hats, shoes, purses, gloves and fans from Colebrook’s past, such as Mrs. Edward Carrrington’s wedding shoes and a christening gown that’s been in the Judge family for four generations.  Also on display are the print ads from which the people of Colebrook selected their fashions. The exhibit can also be viewed on Saturdays and Sundays during the summer from 11AM to 1 PM. 

The Open House will feature refreshments. It will be held at the home of the CHS, the Seymour Inn, located at the intersection of Routes 183 and 182A in Colebrook Center. For further information contact Carol Lord at carol.9508@yahoo.com or 860-738-8244.
