History Happy Hour at Home: “No Thanks Mom”

Posted on by
Presented to the Santa Barbara Historical Museum May 21, 2020.
I give suggestions on how to document your objects, talk about the importance of the process, and I reflect upon the market RIGHT NOW during this pandemic.
Then I present “No Thanks Mom: The Top Ten Objects Your Kids Do NOT Want” (and what to do with them), an honest and humorous exploration of the generational differences in the households and possessions of Millennials/Gen-Xers and their Boomer parents. If you’ve tried to pass on fine china, porcelain figurines, silver-plated objects, ornate rugs, or heavy, dark furniture to a Millennial, you know it’s not so easy. We know many of you are organizing your homes during the quarantine, so this timely talk will help!
