Don't miss the event of the summer! Come for an afternoon of roaring twenties fun at our historic seaside estate. You'll find 1920s and 30s jazz on 2 stages, antique autos, a vintage fair, flappers and dandies, suffragists, and contests.
Explore the formal gardens, learn about the social inequities of the 1920s, take a dance lesson, and enjoy a drink at the Bootlegger's Garden featuring Mill River Winery, 1634 Meadery, and True North Ales. For more information about performers, special activities, and the schedule of events, visit the Roaring Twenties Lawn Party website. Please note that website updates are ongoing as event details are confirmed.
Dance lessons and other staged events will begin at 2PM. Vintage attire is suggested but not required. A string of beads, a hat, or other simple accessory can turn a regular outfit into a 1920s outfit.
Bring your own supper, pre-order a picnic from Ferreira Foods by Monday July 29, or visit one of our onsite vendors: Beefie Boys, Plat Du Jour, Ferreira Foods, Del's Lemonade, and Down River Ice Cream.
