Visions of Beauty—Inside the Victorian Artists Salon
... Galleries 10,11 & 12
noon–3 p.m.
You are invited to a special day in the Artists Salon. Sit down and gaze into the eyes of Elizabeth Siddal and converse with William Morris! The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood Artists Salon brings the Legion of Honor galleries to life while you take your turn at sketching models. Become a fan of the Pre-Raphelite Society on Facebook.
The day's programs also include special guests from Dark Garden Corsetry in San Francisco's Hayes Valley neighborhood. Learn about the evolution of Victorian fashion from corsets to the Aesthetic ideal. Representatives and artisans will be on site to teach you about the histories of women's and men's fashions in the era.

We have two 15 foot tables available in the garage, plus, we might manage a card table for prop supplies if needed. If wanted, we can probably go a little longer. For those interested, we can probably have tea inside. Warning: two cats will be hiding in the master bedroom.... So, if you need that last little bit to have something available for CA, this is your opportunity.
Oh, I should probably mention that anything not claimed will probably go to Goodwill. I don't want to be responsible for storing stuff
