We're back at Frankie’s NY Bagels !
We're running our Shop for a Cause with 20% of sales going to Clarke Historical Museum ✨️
We highlighted 3 exhibits going on NOW at Clarke.
The Victorian Era was a period of great loss, which paired with their insatiable curiosity for the unknown, lead to sweeping trends of séances, spiritualism, and the rise of occult mysticism.
Families would adopt decorative mourning jewlery, and many would also carry reminders with them that one day, they will die too.. Check out their displays of beautifully braided hairs worn as pendants or hung as art to remeber ones lost, how they would turn to the spiritual world to try and reach lost ones, and how they would learn to cope with the inevitable. 🔮💀✨️
Spider webs, spiders, Owls, and bats were seen as good fortunes or turned into talisman for good luck. We kinda took liberty on this category to show off some local species we adore 😂 BUT you can check out Owls and more in the Clarke's Bird Collection! 🦉
Touring Humboldt; The Golden Age of Redwood Highways! Scenice drives, tourist traps, and camping sights, oh my! Learn about the fascinating tourism culture that rose around this new wave of motorized tourist taking advantage of new roads to see the foreign and exciting redwood giant forests!🌲 🚗🌲
You're always bound to learn something new at the Clarke; stop in at Downtown Eureka, 240 E Street, Eureka, CA.
