Event Description
The term servant conjures up images of Downton Abbey and Upstairs, Downstairs. But servants in America worked in a different social structure than their counterparts in class-conscious England. Who were those people who served as domestic servants in Cedar Falls, who were their employers, and how did their lives differ? Join us for light refreshments as we celebrate the launch of our 2023 exhibition, “Everybody Ought to Have a Maid: Servants in Cedar Falls.”
