‘Victorian Collections and Coffee’ Series Begins at Sutliff
WARREN, Ohio – The Sutliff Museum will host the first in a series of lectures, “Victorian Collections and Coffee,” at 9 a.m. Sept. 17.
The lecture will give attendees insight into wedding customs during the late 19th century and how those customs still influence weddings today. “It will be a presentation on Victorian wedding customs featuring the influence of Queen Victoria on customs still used today,” says Melissa Karman, museum director.

The second program, “Inside Out: Revealing Clothing’s Secrets” will be presented on Oct. 13 and the third program, “Victorian Courtship and Languages of the Fan” will be presented on Nov. 15.
The lectures will take place in the Thomas Meeting Room on the second floor of the Warren-Trumbull County Public Library.
