Regency reenactment

Groups portray the period from 1811 to 1820 through costume, manners, food, and social gatherings that celebrate the spirit of the era.

Events and activities include period balls, entertainments, parties, teas, craft workshops, readings, movie marathons, costume sewing classes, dance classes, meals and picnics using Regency recipes, old-fashioned games, and discussions centered on a period theme.

The dress code is always Regency-themed and group members are encouraged to make their own costumes or to purchase or rent the clothes.

Beyond history, it is also very important to me that these events provide an opportunity for families to come together in a wholesome atmosphere for some good, old-fashioned joy and excitement which everyone can feel comfortable participating in.

Various age groups interact at our Balls who normally would have little if any contact in modern "age-segregated" social settings.
