9th-12th graders! Do you like fashion and history? Join us for our Project Runway-esque workshop and fashion show this summer!
We’re putting a special historical twist on fashion by celebrating the looks that were in style during the Civil War. Participants in the program will choose a person that was associated with Lawrence during the time of Quantrill’s raid and create an updated modern look with some inspiration from the past. We’ll meet every Thursday starting in June to work on our designs and will showcase all of our hard work with a fashion show on July 28 at the Watkins Community Museum of History. Registration is required for the program. Please sign up by calling 785-843-3833.
