Artifact of the week: Silk wedding dress worn in Chatham, Ontario, 1887. The dress was altered slightly after the wedding to be worn as an evening dress (as was customary at the time). #FHMartifactoftheweek #artifactoftheweek #weddingdress #wedding #eveningdress #silk #Chatham #1880s #victorian #fashion #fashionhistory #instamuseum #fashionmuseum #fhm2017
After the 2010 earthquake in Haiti, a group of Canadian artists came together as Young Artists for Haiti to produce their own version of K’naan’s Wavin’ Flag, with proceeds going to charity. Justin Bieber’s 2011 Juno award for this song is one of several awards in our Steps to Stardom exhibit. If you didn’t make it to the opening weekend, don’t worry! The exhibit will be on display until the end of 2018. @justinbieber #artifactoftheweek #stepstostardom #spmuseum
There are bits and pieces stashed away in drawers and boxes we sometimes forget to appreciate like this man's vest panel from the 1780s made up from Indian painted chintz glazed cotton. Donated by Robert Doyle 14.15.13
