Isabella Rosner

What's up, Stitches? Welcome back to Sew What, the podcast all about historical needlework and those who stitched it, with me, your friend and colleague, Isabella Rosner.

Today's episode is one I am so excited about.

It's an interview with Dr. Emily Javalt and Dr. Caroline Culp all about their upcoming exhibition, Locating Girlhood, Place and Identity in Early American Schoolgirl Art, which opens at the American Folk Art Museum in New York City on October 9th of this year.

I'm a little bit sweaty about it because this exhibition, it's like you went into my brain.

For So What listeners, this exhibition at the American Folk Art Museum is titled Locating Girlhood, Place and Identity in Early American School Girl, School Girl in quotation marks, Art.

You truly entered Isabella Rosner's brain.

I, the decibel level of my screen is, when i saw that i like had heard whispers of this exhibition before it went live but when i saw that on my instagram i my cat marlena dietrich she left the room i screamed so hard she vacated the space so i'm very excited to talk about this okay i have a lot of questions and it was hard to figure out how to distill them down so i guess one of my big questions is what are the themes what are you trying to get at what are the parameters What exactly are you including in this exhibition? So many questions from me again.

Yes.
