The flour sacks were subjected to a close examination in June 2022. The researchers studied every detail and counted 360 items in this unique collection of American and Canadian flour sacks decorated by Belgian schoolgirls, women and artists. Come hear about what they found! They’ll reveal the identity of the Belgian schoolgirls who painted and embroidered the sacks and special attention will be given to paintings of emerging, now famous, Belgian artists and exquisite embroideries.
