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.

Join us as we celebrate sixteen years of bringing award-winning documentary films to Savannah!

Have you ever wondered how—and in what form—West African traditions show up on fine dining tables in Savannah, and what culinary connections exist between West Africa and the foods we recognize on U.S. plates?

Adé Carrena is a celebrated Beninese-American chef (North Carolina Chef of the Year 2023, Chopped Champion) whose work sits at the intersection of food, culture, and lived experience—an approach that closely mirrors the mission of Coastal Table and Tales. Her cooking draws on West African foodways, Southern ingredients, and the realities of diaspora, grounded in craft and respect for tradition while engaging the present moment.

During her Savannah residency, Chef Carrena will lead three distinct yet connected events that explore our opening questions and invite participants to learn through hands-on practice, shared meals, and thoughtful conversation. Each experience stands on its own, and guests are welcome to pick and choose what speaks to them—or to follow the full arc of the weekend for a deeper exploration of how food builds knowledge, connection, and community.
