Community Room

Explore the evolution of women's headwear from bonnets to caps.

Join us on a journey through our nation’s evolving identity, exploring how women’s headwear – from colonial bonnets to modern baseball caps – mirrored shifts in fashion, freedom, and the American spirit, celebrating 250 years of iconic style. Attendees are encouraged to have fun and wear a hat!

About the Presenter 

Eileen Tannich Gose comes from a long line of strong women.  As a result, she realizes that the gains in equality for women today come from the efforts of women in the past.  Eileen’s research of the topic resulted in the book, Reflecting Freedom: How Fashion Mirrored the Struggle for Women’s Rights.  In addition to her scholarship of women’s equality and fashion, Eileen holds a bachelor’s degree in anthropology and master’s degree in education.
