I'm not sure if anyone on my f-list is close enough to attend, but I just wanted to spread the word that the Elegant Arts Society Regency Assembly (which I have been attending for years) will be held this weekend in New Haven, CT.
Saturday is an early 19th century ball with instruction preceding in the morning. No costume required, just elegant dress of some sort.
Sunday is an optional promenade in the park followed by period games and refreshments.
This is an event I look forward to every year. Well worth the trip.
Pre-registration prices are still available through Friday. Please see the website for more details:
