The Titanic Anniversary Ball
Saturday @ 6:45p in San Mateo
An elegant ball for first class passengers with a 1912 backdrop to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the last evening on RMS Titanic.
A pre-ball dance workshop will focus on the "new" dances of the 20th century, and, as usual, all set dances and mixers will be briefly taught and called. It is rumored that some of those charming passengers in steerage will make a guest appearance to perform and teach some of their own lively dances at intermission.
Suggested costume for First Class passengers is evening dress from 1900 - 1912 or modern evening dress. As always, however, costumes are admired but not required.
