Learn about village costumes from the late 1800's and early 1900's in Macedonian, Croatian and Roma cultures at this presentation by Marin Moehle. The grandson of Macedonian immigrants, Moehle learned native language, traditions, folklore and village culture from his family. His interest in ethnography lead him to collect traditional folk clothing and other items immigrants brought with them to the New York.
As the owner of one of the largest private collections of folk clothing in the United States and Canada, the colorful program will feature typical work clothes, festival costumes and mourning clothes. You are invited to arrive early to ask questions about the costumes as Moehle sets up a display representing a portion of his collection.
This program is a free event that is open to the public.
