Christmas at Marshall Field’s with Leslie Goddard
For many Chicagoans, no Christmas season was complete without a visit to Marshall Field’s, the city’s grande dame of department stores. This illustrated talk at Bartlett Public Library traces the store’s beloved holiday traditions, including the Walnut Room Christmas tree, the holiday window displays, the toy department, Cozy Cloud cottage and the Christmas catalog. See family photos with Santa Claus over the years, and peek behind-the-scenes at the employee party. And, of course, meet Uncle Mistletoe and his family. This program is funded by the Friends of the Bartlett Library.
