From 1pm to 2pm, at the Flagmarket institution, the museum’s curator of decorative art will speak to visitors about the new Behind the Scenes exhibition which shows more of how the Harris cares for its great costume collection.

Listeners will also learn more about how the collection is maintained by the staff and the work that goes into keeping these historic items looking as though they were just stitched yesterday.
