The Lockwood-Mathews Mansion Museum will hold, “The Mansion’s Costume Ball,” on Oct. 19, 2024, 7 p.m., at the Shore and Country Club, 220 Gregory Blvd, Norwalk, CT.
The Museum will put its unique spin on a practice that Victorians were obsessed with, including Prince Albert and Queen Victoria, who hosted several costume balls during her long reign. Alva Vanderbilt’s costume party in 1883 was known to be the most extravagant of the Gilded Age. The Mansion’s ball will draw inspiration from these celebrated events to raise funds for its educational and cultural programs. Tickets for the event are $300.
