Victorian Mourning
Saturday, June 28, 2025 | 2 - 3 pm
From their clothing, to their traditions and superstitions, it’s safe to say that Victorians were obsessed with death. This has left many in the current day with a fascination for them and has created a mythos that can sometimes be labeled as patently false. Join us for an hour-long talk on the ways that Victorians looked at and observed death while dispelling some long-established myths along the way.
