Hidden Gems: Fashioning A Legacy Exhibit

May 10 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm

In celebration of Pearl S. Buck International’s 60th anniversary in 2024, a special two-month limited exhibit, Hidden Gems: Fashioning A Legacy, will open March 15 in the Conference Center on the grounds of the historic Pearl S. Buck Estate.
This exhibit will showcase the best representations of Pearl Buck’s personal style through her intact collection of American and Asian fashion, jewelry, shoes, handbags, hand fans, gloves, and associated archival material. A woman well ahead of her time, Ms. Buck had a distinctive style. She had the opportunity to live in two very different cultures and carefully chose clothing and accessories to represent the two halves of herself and her life. The fashions exhibited will also be used as the vehicle to tell the story of Pearl S. Buck International’s work and impact since 1964.
 
Join for the first special exhibition of Pearl S. Buck’s 20th century fashion in celebration of the 60th Anniversary of the foundation she began that would and continues to change the lives of millions around the world.
