Program Description

Event Details

Everyone's favorite regency author is turning 250 and we think she deserves a proper celebration! Join us for this special after-hours event dedicated fully to Jane Austen and the Regency era. Promenade throughout the library and visit each "dance" to fill up your dance card. Dine at our extravagant tea party, enjoy a quick game of pall mall, craft some fanciful items, vote for your favorite Austen novel, and take photos with a very handsome (if two-dimensional) gentleman. The evening will conclude with three rounds of Austen trivia to test your knowledge of her books, life, and the Regency era. Some delightful prizes hand-selected by Jane Austen lovers for Jane Austen lovers will be awarded to trivia winners and select attendees who completed their dance card. 

We invite you to attend in your finest Regency ensemble, however 21st century attire is also more than welcome.
