Upcoming Events of the Milford Historical Society - 2009

 

 

 

 

 

 

Many of the 2010 events and meeting program details are still being decided - check back often for updates. Here is what we have so far.

March 18th - At our next general membership meeting

we are going to learn how the interlacingof two sets of

yarns or threads is used to weave fabrics. The art of weaving

has remained essentially the same for thousands of years.

By using a device calleda loom, crafters can use these t

hreads to create beautiful fabrics. Our speakers have

extensive experience with the loom and if you have

visited the Weavers shop atGreenfield Village, you may

have met them. Richard and Chris Jeryan are both

volunteers there and will explain the art of weaving.

 

Our guests will bring a few coverlets from their collection. Society members, with

questions about their own coverlets, are welcome to bring them, and Richard and

Christine will try to provide insight about their construction and history.

We will begin with a potluck dinner at 6:30 PM at the Milford Methodist Church

(1200 Atlantic St). A brief business meeting will begin at 7:30 PM followed immediately

by our program. Please feel free to invite a guest—everyone is welcome and

encouraged to attend. Bring your own table service and a dish to pass based on the

first letter of your last name as shown below.
