Flappers, bathtub gin, and the Charleston. Women of the “Roaring 20s” were removing their corsets, raising their hemlines, bobbing their hair, and fighting for their freedoms and the right to vote. The arrival of the Jazz Age in 1920s America, with music from New Orleans and Louis Armstrong, the rise of filmmaking and Hollywood’s growing influence, along with an increase in 1920s fashion marketing, were re-shaping women’s roles and styles.

Admission is free.

The Alexander Black House is open every Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

The Alexander Black House is located at 204 Draper Road in Blacksburg, VA.
