Curator’s Tour for Ralph Cahoon: Fashioning a Fantasy World

Join the museum for a curator-led tour of Ralph Cahoon: Fashioning a Fantasy World, an exhibition highlighting how Ralph Cahoon used fashion not simply as decoration, but as a powerful storytelling device.

This guided experience explores the intricate costumes, textiles, and historical dress that populate Cahoon’s enchanted scenes of mermaids, sailors, and revelers. Through close looking and conversation, participants will discover how fashion becomes a central thread in constructing Cahoon’s imaginative realms, where every ruffle, stripe, and sash plays a role in the unfolding tale. Ideal for art lovers, fashion enthusiasts, and anyone curious about visual storytelling, this tour invites a deeper appreciation of the detail and narrative richness woven throughout Cahoon’s work.
