Domesticity is defined as the quality or state of being domestic or domesticated along with domestic activities or life. The Allen County Museum is hosting a new exhibit titled "The Art of Domesticity," highlighting the activities that a 19th- or 20th-century woman would do in the home. Things like knitting, porcelain painting, weaving, and more. Many of those can now be seen as fine arts. The show is a combination of current museum artifacts and the artwork of five contemporary female artists that show how decorative arts were intertwined in a woman's life at home.
