Throughout her storied career, actress Glenn Close has collaborated closely with costume designers to help bring the characters she embodies to life. Inspired by the creativity and craftsmanship she saw in her film and theater productions, she began collecting and preserving costumes and accessories from her projects after her first movie, The World According to Garp (1982). In 2017, she donated her over 800-piece collection to the Elizabeth Sage Historic Costume Collection in the School of Art, Architecture Design at Indiana University.

First presented at the Eskenazi Museum of Art at Indiana University in 2020, The Art of the Character: Highlights from the Glenn Close Costume Collection will offer visitors a unique opportunity to thoroughly explore the careful consideration and exacting details that teams of designers, drapers, and other craftspeople created in over 50 ensembles and numerous examples of jewelry, shoes, and other accessories. It will feature the work of award-winning costume designers, including Anthony Powell (1935–2021), Ann Roth (b. 1949), James Acheson (b. 1946), and Alexandra Byrne (b. 1962), and costumers like Barbara Matera Ltd (active 1968–2001), from 14 of Close’s best-loved movies.

This exhibition is organized by Telfair Museums in partnership with the Elizabeth Sage Historic Costume Collection at the Eskenazi School of Art, Architecture, and Design of Indiana University.

The Nest is your space, where women show up as we are, talk about what’s true, and feel seen, heard, and understood.

Each group discussion is a guided conversation that help us go deeper, without pressure to “perform.”

This is where you get to say the real stuff out loud. And instead of awkward silence or unsolicited advice, you get: “Same. Me too. I get it.”

You’ll be supported and you’ll also get to support other women in a way that feels natural, not performative. The result is connection that moves past small talk and turns into real relationships.

Because yes, sometimes you just want to finish a cup of coffee while it’s still hot…. But you also want something bigger than survival-mode. You want to surround yourself with people who know you, in a place where you don’t have to pretend you’re fine.

This is for you if you’re getting through your days… but you’re running on fumes. You’re holding it together on the outside, and feeling worn down on the inside.

The Nest is for women who:

feel lonely even though they’re surrounded by people

carry the mental load and rarely feel truly supported

who miss having friends they can be honest with (without judgment or fixing)

are tired of being the strong one all the time

want connection that goes deeper than “How are you? Good. Busy.”

want a place to show up as-is — messy week, puffy eyes, and all

If you’re an entrepreneur, executive, professional, caretaker, or multitasker-in-chief – and you’re done doing it all alone – you belong here.
