This landmark exhibition explores the colorful furniture of southeastern Pennsylvania along with the people who made, owned, inherited, and collected it. Featuring nearly 200 objects—including furniture, fraktur, needlework, and paintings—the show focuses on the culture and creativity of the area’s English- and German-speaking inhabitants. The exhibition is curated by Winterthur’s Wendy A. Cooper, the Lois F. and Henry S. McNeil Senior Curator of Furniture, and Lisa M. Minardi, the Assistant Curator of Furniture for the Southeastern Pennsylvania Furniture Project.
