New Exhibition Opening: Fashionable Dogs

Thursday, September 7
11am

Fashionable Dogs opens to the public!

Over centuries, specific breeds of dog have gone in and out of fashion as the ultimate accessory from nobility to the runway. Through paintings, fashion photography, and accessories this exhibition chronicles the rise and fall of dogs in fashion. Fashionable Dogs tracks the arc of popularity of several breeds through recent history, diving deep into the rise and fall of such breeds as the Borzoi, Greyhound, Poodle, Pekingese, Japanese Chin, French Bulldog, and Great Dane.

Out of courtesy to our neighbors, only service dogs and invited demonstration dogs are allowed in the museum.
