Yesterday’s bathing suits were known simply as “costumes,” even though there really wasn’t anything simple about covering oneself from head to toe, including the severe consequences to those who didn’t follow the strict bathing ordinance.
The La Jolla Historical Society is pleased to announce a temporary new exhibit opening Saturday, July 26th in historic Wisteria Cottage, 780 Prospect Street. The free exhibit is open to the public daily from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. until August 10th. A special gift shop offering unique exhibit-related merchandise also will be open.
The exhibition entitled “By the Beautiful Sea: A Photographic History of Summers in La Jolla, 1870-1930” is a marvelous look back at not only bathing costumes, but the beginnings of La Jolla being billed as a “resort community.”
