Canterbury Shaker Village

Canterbury Shaker Village
News & Notes from the Village
FROM THE DIRECTOR
June 2014
COLLECTION HIGHLIGHTS
Dear Friends,
Earlier this year, the Village was awarded a $150,000 Land and Community Heritage
Investment Program (LCHIP) grant for the purpose of renovating and restoring the
Shaker Trustees’ Office, which is one of the most important structures on the museum
grounds. This project represents the culmination of our significant building restoration
efforts and completes the interpretation of Shaker culture at our Village.
We are very excited that this grant and future matching funds will allow the public access to this building
and its stories. The Trustees’ Office offers the rare and meaningful opportunity to interpret the scale and
scope of the Shakers 200-year legacy of entrepreneurship, innovative design and simple living to the world
in an authentic space.
Designed as the hub of the Canterbury Shakers’ considerable commercial enterprises, the building was
continually in use from 1831-1990. Here, they executed contracts for their inventions and manufactured
goods (such as washing machines, medicines, seed packets and other dry goods), housed guests and clients
who arrived from distant places, and met with townspeople and local officials to discuss civic matters.
The Trustees’ Office also has national significance as one of the best examples of Shaker architecture
surviving in any of the original 19 Shaker communities from Maine to Kentucky.
The restoration and renovation project will also consolidate the museum’s offices, create program and
exhibit spaces on main floor, provide overnight accommodations for workshop participants and lecturers
on the second floor, provide collections storage on top floor, and create a rental apartment in the lower
level with a centralized area for housekeeping.
The total cost of the project is expected to be $358,000 and will rely on a combination of private
donations and additional grant funding to match the LCHIP funds. To-date we have raised $80,500 of the
$150,000 in matching funds we need. I am hopeful that in the coming months we will achieve our goal.
What a wonderful tribute the Shaker legacy!
It truly is an exciting time to be part of the Village community. I invite you to join us on June 25th for
A Star-Spangled Summer Picnic and Auction to learn more about this and the other projects underway at
the Village.
My best,
Funi Burdick
Executive Director
Shaker Painting Donated
to the Village
A painting by Canterbury Shaker
sister Cora Helena Sarle (1867-1956)
was recently donated to the museum.
Depicting the Meeting House from
the northwest, the painting measures
16 x 20 inches, and for many years
graced the front hallway of donor
Miriam Hill.
Attached to the back of the painting
is Sarle’s obituary notice from a
local paper: “Sister Sarle was widely
known in the area for her paintings,”
it notes; “she also sang soprano in the
Shaker quartet which formerly sang
in the area.”

Authentic Canterbury Shaker
Herb Wrapper
Given by Shaker collector and Village
Board member Steve Miller, this is an
authentic Shaker piece.
Originally printed to
wrap around “bricks”
of herbs for sale, this
reads “Pulverized Sage.
Prepared by the Shakers
East Canterbury, NH”
and is signed by Sister
Miriam Wall (18961977). Village Board
Member Laurie Harte
has generously created a
one-of-a-kind beautiful
mirror for this special Shaker item.

something out of the ordinary.

GET INVOLVED
“Childhood is with the majority of little folks the joyous season of life and Summer is the
very time of delight for most children everywhere,--but in no place is it more thoroughly
enjoyed than among those modest people termed Shakers, or it was thus in my experience
and I presume it is with the children of today.”
--Anna P. Caril “Reminiscences of My Shaker Childhood,” Shaker Manifesto August 1880
Education Volunteers
To foster volunteerism in the area of handson activities at special events, we have
created a special Canterbury Shaker Village
Volunteer category: the Education Volunteer.
By working with children and adult visitors
on hands-on activities during special
events and other programs at the museum,
Education Volunteers allow the Village to
offer multi-faceted, interactive programming
to a broad audience.
“Hands-on activities really inspire our
visitors,” said Maisie Keith Daly, CSV
Education Manager. “Whether it’s making
a Shaker Christmas ornament, an up-cycled bird house, or a model oval box, activities
provide visitors with those multi-sensory experiences that relate to the Shaker legacy of
innovative design, entrepreneurship and simple living.”
The ideal Education Volunteer should enjoy working with children and visitors of all ages.
Education Volunteers foster enjoyable and active experiences for visiting families, and
instill a positive view of history and museums in children.
This volunteer opportunity is a good fit for college students majoring in Education, retired
school teachers, or anyone who enjoys fostering learning in a busy, active setting.
To learn more about becoming a Canterbury Shaker Village Volunteer, please contact
Maisie Keith Daly, Education Manager at (603) 783-9077 x284 or [email protected].

GROUPS @ THE VILLAGE
Over the past few weeks, we have hosted
a variety of non-traditional visitors who
were interested in the Shakers’ legacy of
beautiful architecture, fine furniture, and
their connection to the land.
William-Sonoma/Pottery Barn
Photo Shoot
The Village was selected
as the site for the
William-Sonoma/Pottery
Barn Christmas Catalog
photo shoot.
A team of
photographers
and designers
spent three days
in April at the
Village using the Shaker’s beautiful
doors and the laundry as the backdrop
for their Christmas products.
This WGBH-produced series visited
Canterbury Shaker Village in May to
gain design inspiration and film two
half-hour episodes on Shaker furniture.
He interviewed Curator Jean Burks and
the segments will feature items from
the Village’s collection. After filming
wrapped up, Tommy Mac toured other
parts of the Village and was especially
interested in the Dorothy cloak featured
in this month’s @ the Village section.
NH Farm to School Conference
On May 20,
the Village
hosted
UNH’s NH
Farm to
School/Preschool day-long farm to
school/preschool conference.
The conference brought together
farmers, educators and administrators
to share ideas and strengthen their
commitment to fresh and healthy
food for our schools and preschools.

@ THE VILLAGE
The Dorothy Cloak: A Shaker Brand Goes Mainstream
Woven textiles, marked
by a fusion of the Shaker
style elements of balance,
repetition, and structural
design and style elements
from the outside world, were
a significant part of Shaker
folklife. In addition to chair
tape, double-sided wool
flannel, rugs and poplar cloth
and knitted goods, they created
a brand: The Dorothy Cloak.
An unusual aspect of the Dorothy Cloak is its name because it is a departure from the
Shaker folklife tradition of creating work anonymously in the community. The Dorothy
Cloak is named after its designer, Eldress Dorothy Durgin (1825-1898) who came to
Canterbury Shaker Village in 1834.
In 1890, Eldress Dorothy owned a raincoat that she prized for its functionality and its
design. Eldress Dorothy used the raincoat as a pattern to make another for herself in wool.
On a sales trip, she wore this new woolen cloak and was soon being asked by people
where they might purchase one for themselves. The pattern and name of the Dorothy
Cloak were patented, and a new Shaker industry was born.
The cloaks were popular for their design and excellent tailoring – each customer was
measured individually for a proper fit. Simple and elegant with silk ribbons that tied under
the chin, the cloaks featured interior pockets sewn into a silk lining, which keep the lining
of the cloak intact. The large hood, possibly originally designed to cover the Shaker bonnet,
could accommodate the large hairstyles of the day and the cape collar added warmth.
Famous wearers included Alice Roosevelt, daughter of President Theodore Roosevelt, Mrs.
Calvin Coolidge, Mrs. Herbert Hoover, and Mrs. Grover Cleveland, who wore her Dorothy
Cloak to the Presidential Inauguration. The last cloak was
made by Sister Miriam Wall at Canterbury in the early
1970s. White with red lining, it was commissioned for a
wedding.
Today, Canterbury Shaker Village Demonstrators Willa
O’Rourke and Norma Sousa interpret Shaker textiles
in the Sisters’ Shop and they often create reproduction
Shaker garments for use in interpretation and exhibits.

NH: University Press of New England); Kaime, Eldress J.J.

Sanborn, Willa O’Rourke, and Darryl Thompson.
Our mission is to preserve the 200-year legacy of the Canterbury Shakers
and provide a place for learning, reflection and renewal of the human spirit.
