Jane Austen Holiday Cards for sale

Filed under: Austen Societies and Events — Mags @ 8:49 pm

The Jane Austen Society of America’s Eastern Pennsylvania-Delaware Valley Region is selling Jane Austen-themed holiday cards. The cards have a sepia-toned drawing of Jane Austen holding a sprig of holly on the front, and the text reads, “Wishing you all the gaiety that the season can bring.” There are ten cards to a package priced at $10 U.S. plus shipping and handling.

Full disclosure: the Editrix is a member of this JASNA region; however, if another region was selling the cards and asked to have them linked we certainly would do so, so why be shy?

And come to think of it, check out all the goodies for sale by various JASNA regions. One-stop holiday shopping for the Janeites on your list!

A Jane Austen Evening in southern California

Filed under: Austen Societies and Events — Mags @ 12:56 am

If you’re in southern California and longing for a ball, you’re in luck!

The Lively Arts History Association of California is sponsoring a Jane Austen Evening on Saturday, January 21, 2006, at the Pasadena Masonic Lodge, and a tea before the ball. There also will be two pre-dance classes to learn the steps.

Tickets for the tea are $10 and for the ball are $25. Tickets for the ball only will be available at the door unless they sell out; sounds like you’ll want to register in advance.
