Apron Chronicles Exhibit Information
- 1. Apron Chronicles: A Patchwork of American Recollections is America’s most
nostalgic, thought provoking and generationalfriendly traveling exhibition. Touring
since 2004, Apron Chronicles presents the American experience through 46
photographs, accompanying text in story form and 150 vintage aprons. Utilizing the
apron as a symbol immediately recognized by everyone, Apron Chronicles explores the
people behind the aprons and is ultimately more about life than fabric. The exhibit’s
diverse storytellers include a 111yearold mother and her only child,
a Holocaust survivor, a biology professor from Mali, Africa, and a preteen and her
grandmother.
Bestselling author EllynAnne Geisel’s stories and vintage apron collection give voice to
the exhibit, with awardwinning photographer Kristina Loggia preserving the storytellers'
images in an environmental style that complements the unadorned honesty of their
recollections.
Apron Chronicles national recognition includes Time magazine, the New York Times,
CBS Sunday Morning and NPR’s Weekend Edition.
