The Barony of Gyldenholt is pleased to host Twelfth Night '88. Come join us in a Feast of Peace hosted by the people of the Netherlands. All the Known World is invited to celebrate the coming of the New Year and the traditional feast of the Epiphany, to be celebrated Saturday, January 9th at the First Presbyterian Church in Anaheim.

The period is 1490 to 1510, a less well-known period than many. This is the time of Marco Polo, Albrecht Durer and the Italian Renaissance. As this is an international celebration, costumes of any country would be appropriate. Some of which come to mind are Italian Renaissance, Landsknecht, Burgundian & Early Tudor.

Should your Norman persona balk at the thought of a 16th century costume, feel free to costume in the colors of Twelfth Night: purple, green and silver, the traditional colors of the Epiphany.
