The heart of the New Canaan Museum & Historical Society is its clothing and textile collection. Included within this extensive collection is more than 400 pairs of shoes that span from 1750 to the present. Most have been donated over the past fifty years by New Canaan residents. Some were actually made in New Canaan at the Benedict Shoe Factory. Donna Gorman, board governor and owner of SeeDesign, Inc., conceived of, and curated, Shoes, an extensive exhibition of men’s, women’s and children’s shoes. They were curated based on a number of factors including age, condition, originality, and function. Come see early galoshes, sneakers, beaded heels, dancing shoes, furry sleigh boots, and much more. Learn about the shoe industry in New Canaan that thrived for more than 100 years and helped shape the downtown commercial district. This is the first time in the history of this Museum that such an expanded selection has been on exhibit. It is not to be missed.

Constance Old —

The Art of Consumer Detritus

Through November 3rd | The Gores Pavilion

Common Ground: Irwin

By Torrance York

Through June 30th| The Silvermine Room

N41º08.493’ W073º30.332’11/8/16 384 ft. (Irwin

Sheltered Path) by Torrance York

circle#1, 2012-2015 by Constance Old

Constance Old’s work comes from a tradition of upcycling materials that began in Colonial America. Settlers were quick to adhere to the mantra of “waste not, want not.” Living in rural New England with little money, women did what they could to cover the cold floors in their homes. They took the burlap from empty seed sacks, cut strips of fabric out of old clothes, ribbons, or scraps, pulled the fabric through the burlap and made floor coverings. Constance Old collects materials, including sales receipts, bar codes from merchandise or food, newspa-per bags, caution tape or other plas-tics. Then, using early American traditional skills – rug hooking,

embroidery, needlepoint, she repurposes the detritus of twenty-first century consumerism. By hearkening back to an age where conservation was born of necessity, her art speaks to the excesses of contemporary society and the need to preserve the fragile environment.

The show features more than forty works by Constance Old. In addition, the New Canaan Museum & Historical Society presents materials from its permanent collection, including Victorian samplers, a cigar ribbon quilt, and sewing tools. These items illustrate that traditional skills have produced incredible art from repurposed materials for more than 200 years.

Common Ground: Irwin reflects Torrance York's love of Irwin Park. The

photographs taken over the past 4 years emphasize the changing palette of the

seasons and represent her experience of a specific place. For this reason, she

includes the GPS coordinates in the title of each photograph. "I create these

compositions from my field of view at these particular points. I say 'created' in-

stead of 'captured' because the eye cannot play with focus on its own. A shallow

depth of field can only be examined through the camera lens."

Ms. York has exhibited locally and nationally in group and solo shows. She is the

recipient of numerous awards, and her work has been published in The Photo

Review, Connecticut Cottages & Gardens and New Canaan/Darien Magazine.

You can learn more about the artist's work at www.torranceyork.com.

Ms. York will give an Artist's Talk on June 4th at 10:30 am in the Pavilion.

The Gores Pavilion opens for the season on Friday, May, 10th. Hours are:

Friday-Sunday 11 am - 3 pm, or by appointment. For additional information,

please contact the New Canaan Museum & Historical Society at in-

fo@nchistory.org or 203-966-1776, ext. 3.

Together they form a comprehensive digital record of American history, culture and life. “This is an amazing addition to the resources we have available to our members,” said Nancy Geary, Executive Director of the New Canaan Museum & Historical Society. “I know this digital library will spark curiosity and promote learning. We are very grateful to Dan Jones and NewsBank for making it available to the New Canaan community through the Historical Society.” “NewsBank is delighted to partner with the New Canaan Museum & Historical to learn and understand the value of this content to its members so we can continue to improve the value that can be brought to other Historical Societies”, said Mr. Jones.
