The Stockbridge Historical Society will sponsor an illustrated talk by Michele Pagan, a coordinator of the Vermont Sampler Institute on Sunday, Oct. 13, 2024, at the Stockbridge Meeting House on the Common at 1:30 p.m. Embroidered samplers, maps and pictures were an essential component of a girl's education and gives insight into their lives, their families and their communities. The Vermont Sampler Institute is working to identify, photograph and document all schoolgirl embroideries made before 1900 that are now in public and private collections in Vermont. In just 2 years, over 600 samplers have been documented due to these efforts.

All are welcome to this free event!
