A walk through the history of shoes

Are you curious about the footwear of years gone by? If so, explore the evolution of shoes since the reign of Queen Victoria through the 20th century on a “walk” through the history of shoes by Karen Antonowicz of the Rhode Island School of Design on Thursday, Feb. 23 at 7 p.m. in the Lincoln Public Library Tarbell Room. We will discover the developments that occurred in footwear for women and men of the 19th and 20th centuries, emphasizing the influences that precipitated these changes. The talk is in advance of a trip to see the Peabody-Essex Museum’s “Shoes: Pleasure and Pain” exhibit on Saturday, Feb. 25, but the talk is open to all including those who did not sign up for the trip. Sponsored by The Friends of the Lincoln Public Library .
