Once you have seen this exhibition, you will never again regard hats as ordinary. This headwear pays tribute to human ingenuity and creativity. The rich fabrics, bright colors, profusion of shapes and elaborate decoration provide a window on the history, customs, values and beliefs of cultural traditions around the world.
