This travelling exhibition from the City of Richmond Hill that explores changes in Victorian middle-class women’s dress, featuring a selection of textiles and objects from the City of Richmond Hill artifact collection.
The period of Queen Victoria’s rule (1837-1901) was a time of considerable change and innovation - in both fashion and society at large. This exhibit focuses on undergarments that were designed to enable women to achieve the desired and fashionable silhouette – complimenting dress-style changes.
On display until Saturday, July 4.

In late 2016, a collection, of over 400 Canadian-themed Wedgwood pieces, was donated to the KHCC by the Estate of the late Keith Alwyn McLeod (1935-2014); it is arguably the most complete collection of Canadian-themed Wedgwood in existence.
Beyond Blue & White: Wedgwood Designed for Canada is a new travelling exhibit designed by KHCC staff and available for rental by other institutions. The exhibit explores the Canadian theme and showcases over 60 unique pieces of Wedgwood.
