PERSONNA LUNCHEON:
Join us for a persona luncheon - potluck style. You don’t need a Carp or to be a Golden Swan to enjoy being in persona. The only requirements are that you dress in your best attempt at your persona’s clothing and to bring feast gear and a lunch contribution that you think your persona would have eaten. It’s all about trying something new and having fun. Absolute beginners are encouraged to join us. Your host for the lunch is Marguerite fitz William, Courtier of Aquaterra, Swan and Veneur. Please RSVP with your name and lunch contribution (that way we’ll have enough tables and we won’t have 14 veggie platters)
