Spinning a Yarn: Houston History Through Clothing at The Heritage Society in Houston

 What would Houston socialite Constance Evershade have worn for a night at the Pillot Opera House in the 1880s? Or how would Pinky Yates, a school teacher and daughter of an African-American preacher dress in her daily life in the late 19th century? In Spinning a Yarn, our historic houses will come to life with the stories of the people who lived in them. These stories will be told by featuring clothing and accessories from the 1830s through the 1920s from The Heritage Society’s permanent collection.
