A Layered Approach: Wallpaper in Historic Homes In-Person

The wallpaper found in historic homes richly offers insight into the families that once occupied its rooms. Join Sara Nixon of The Brown Homestead to explore what we can learn from the 25 layers of wallpaper uncovered in the John Brown House’s Ballroom. We'll also share the augmented reality project currently in development with Brock University Department of Digital Humanities that aims to decorate the walls of the ballroom with these historic patterns once again.
