Celebrate Family & Community Day this August at Morris-Jumel Mansion by crafting your own French-inspired hand fan! The mansion’s ties to French culture date back to its former resident Eliza Jumel, who brought European influence to the estate. In the 18th and 19th centuries, hand fans were not only fashionable but also used a “language” of gestures to convey secret messages. Don’t miss this chance to stay cool! Materials are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Celebre el Día de la Familia y la Comunidad este agosto en la Mansión Morris-Jumel creando su propio abanico de inspiración francesa. Los vínculos de la mansión con la cultura francesa se remontan a su antigua residente Eliza Jumel, quien trajo la influencia europea a la finca. En los siglos XVIII y XIX, los abanicos no solo estaban de moda, sino que también utilizaban un “lenguaje” de gestos para transmitir mensajes secretos. ¡No pierda esta oportunidad de mantenerse fresco! Los materiales están disponibles por orden de llegada.
