Inspired by American Dream: Immigrants and the Business of Fashion, this film series spotlights iconic movies where costume design does as much storytelling as the actors. Expect sharp wit, big style moments, and enough glamour to make you consider wearing something fancier than sweatpants.

Each screening is followed by a private group tour of the exhibition led by Curator Patricia Edmonson, who’ll unravel the fashion history, immigrant stories, and behind-the-scenes artistry that shaped the looks on screen.

Snacks, sweets, and soft drinks are included. Beer and wine available for purchase.

6:00pm–9:00pm
Free with museum admission
