CHM Night 11

All proceeds support awareness about the Safe Haven Law – including the Morgan Jayne Hill Scholarship Fund. Since 2001, 160 newborns have been safely relinquished to a person at a police station, fire station or hospital in Illinois.  The Save Abandoned Babies Foundation has been working for over 20 years to ensure people know about the law so that no baby is needlessly unsafely abandoned.

Guests can tour the Museum’s newly-opened exhibit, Dressed in History: A Costume Collection Retrospective. The exhibit features over 50 costumes from the museum’s collection, with outfits from 200 years of clothing design – including couture designer gowns to everyday wear.

There will be prizes for the best dressed in period style! Dress up in your period outfit for a chance to win a prize. Prizes awarded for each era in the following categories:

Victorian

1920s

1920s 111 (1)

1950s

1970s

Feel free to dress the part. Or just come as you are!

Prizes for best dressed: Victorian, 1920s, 1950s, 1970s Eras
