Threading Together Show & Tell: Korea
May 8 @ 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM
Come join us for Threading Together Show & Tell, an interactive visitor experience that brings the stories behind traditional attire to life. This program is part of our Threading Together: AANHPI Traditional Attire Exhibit.
On May 8, step into traditional Korean style with Kyungmi Kay Lee.
Explore the meaning, history, and cultural significance of the garments featured in our exhibition through conversation and shared storytelling. Engage with cultural representatives, ask questions, and enjoy a show and tell display of additional pieces that deepen the connection between dress and identity, heritage, and artistry.
Whether you are curious about fabrics, symbolism, or the people behind the garments, this experience invites you to look closer and connect more deeply with the living traditions they represent.
