Dufferin County Museum and Archives (DCMA) will celebrate the famous Corn Flower glassware pattern at its Annual Corn Flower Festival this Sunday, June 7.

Pete and Lois (Hughes) Kayser, the owners and former operators of the WJ Hughes Corn Flower Company will be on hand to answer Corn Flower questions and visitors will be able to meet Krista Taylor, author of the "Canadian Identification & Price Guide to W. J. Hughes Corn Flower Glass" and Wayne Townsend, DCMA Curator and author of "Corn Flower - Creatively Canadian".

Also planned for the day are 'share sessions', a consignment sale, live auction of Corn Flower glassware, and presentations focusing on you, the collector!

While there, be sure to visit the museum's Corn Flower Exhibit, "Decades of Design: From Deco to Disco.

The 2009 Dufferin County Museum and Archives' W.J. Hughes Corn Flower Exhibit celebrates the styles and colours of the decades during which Corn Flower was produced.

Each case holds not only glass from the DCMA permanent Corn Flower collection but also clothing and other items of popular culture from World War I to 1988.

In keeping with the exhibit theme, "Decades of Design: From Deco to Disco", the DCMA is encouraging visitors to join in on the fun and come dressed to a decade of their choice.

The 11th Annual Corn Flower Festival takes place on Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
