Sacred Stitches: Historic Vestment Exhibit at the Baltimore Basilica
Some of the historic vestments from the Basilica’s collection will be on display in the temporary exhibit space, from April 1 – September 27, 2009.
The exhibit includes James Cardinal Gibbons’ golden vestments, which he wore during the Third Plenary Council in 1884 (the Basilica Museum showcases the matching chalice veil and burse); a set of Irish Poplin vestments from the bishop and clergy of the Diocese of Ardagh and Clonmacnoise, to Archbishop Michael J. Curley, which feature stunning hand-stitched Celtic designs; along with several other beautiful and historic vestments. For more info, about visiting the Basilica, please click here.
