Program Description

Event Details

Christmas in America from the 1940s through the 1960s meant aluminum trees, department store Santa’s and TV specials. Every kid wanted an Easy Bake Oven, a G.I. Joe or a Slinky. Look back at this optimistic era in a fun illustrated lecture, using photos, ads, greeting cards and catalogs to explore why this was a turning point for how we celebrate the holidays. This program is sponsored by North Fork Libraries.
