Museum Tuesday Talk: What Fortune-Telling Can Tell Us

12:00-1:00

When was the last time you checked your horoscope? Have you ever had your palm read? You are not alone! People have been sneaking a peek into the future in this country since its beginning. The DAR Museum's collection includes two objects with occult connections: a teapot and a book. Find out about these objects and the people who used them: the questions they asked and the methods used to find the answers give us clues about the values of the time.

Speaker: Katie Cannon, Curator of Education, DAR Museum
