What is the Pat and Peggy Kennedy Memorial Library?
The Pat and Peggy Kennedy Memorial Library is the official archive of the International Costumers Guild. Its mission is to preserve the history of Science Fiction fan costuming. Since the mid-1990s, it has been gathering materials spanning 70+ years. It has also accumulated images from Wearable Arts events, Living History and other showcases for creativity. Much of this collection has never been seen by a wide audience before – not even by ICG members. Our intention is to become a major destination for the celebration of craftsmanship, imagination and knowledge that our hobby encompasses.
