Regency Picnic

Bring your parasol and picnic blanket along to the tranquil banks of the River Test this summer.

Join us for a glorious afternoon of picnicking, beverages, and a range of rare Regency Crafts. Those who would like to promenade in their Regency dress are welcome to.

To mark the conclusion of our collaborative project with Jane Austen’s House and the 250th year since the birth of Jane Austen, this event will celebrate the cultural activity of Regency England. As you pose for your personalised silhouette, learn about Jane Austen’s House, and the behind-the-scenes of our critically endangered Silk Ribbon Weaving. This prized picnic will also showcase our ‘Bridgerton’ inspired ribbons, where you can get an exclusive look.

Joining us will be our very own silk ribbon weavers, Silhouette Sarah, Jane Austen’s House and author Sophie Andrews. With more to be announced…
