Flappers - Women of the 1920's at South Coastal Library

Join South Coastal Library in honor of Women's History Month for a discussion on the emergence and history of "flappers" and women's rights in the 1920s. Presented by Trish Chambers, you will learn about the 1920s and how it was a period of American history that drove significant changes in how society perceived and accepted women. It was also a time of meteoric growth for our country and its women. 

The presentation discusses the emergence of American women from the demure Gibson Girl to the flashy Flapper. Also discussed are the impacts of WWI on society, the influences of literature, movies and art on how women were perceived and the fashion of the time. 

Performed in period costume. 

Registration is not required. Hope to see you there. Ages 18+.
