Linda Ashton is the president of The Milliners Guild, an organization of hat makers and small millinery business owners. The guild will be holding their St. Catherine’s Day Parade, a homage to the patron saint of milliners, on November 15th.
What is the Saint Catherine’s Day Parade? How long has it been a tradition?
The St. Catherine’s event has been going on about five years now. It’s celebrated in France and in some other areas of Europe. Because the Guild is always looking for events where we walk about and we’re all hatted up, we call them “Mill Abouts."
