FLYING HIGH: BETTY THE PAN AM STEWARDESS!  FREE EVENT!

Details

Fasten your uniform buttons & get ready to travel back to the golden age of air travel. In the 1960s, when jets were new, the stewardess was an all-American fantasy: hostess, nurse, cook, therapist, & even sex symbol. In this historical portrayal, historian Leslie Goddard tells you the exciting, true story about the real-life stewardesses for Pan Am, the most glamorous U.S. airline in the 1960s. Learn about serving the rich & famous; the strict height, weight, & age requirements; cooking gourmet meals; & enduring some wild rides. Buckle up – this is one flight you won’t forget!

Inspired by the books Up in the Air by Betty Riegel (2020) & Come Fly the World by Julia Cooke (2021)
