Annual Tea

Although we all know Jane Austen's birthday is on December 16 (common knowledge is it not?), the Calgary Regional group holds its birthday celebration in January, when we can all appreciate a party and some good cheer in the face of our cold prairie winters.

To honour Jane we celebrate a delightful gathering including refreshments and afternoon tea, fun and scholarly talks, a dance presentation featuring the Regency Dance Group Sprigged Muslin, games, and more.

Back in January 18, 2020 we held our annual tea, entitled “Tea at the Opera House”, with a sold out crowd who delighted to the sounds of opera, shared in a delicious afternoon tea menu, won big at our raffle, and danced the afternoon away Regency style.
