F&F is pleased to announce your chance to hear about F&F's latest dance scholarship. We've been busy studying the music and choreography from Mrs. Barnmore's "Boyleston Quadrilles" which debuted in 1836 in Roxbury, MA.

We will present a lecture and Q&A, where we share our process for studying social dances from the past. Next, participants will actually hone their quadrille skills in the ballroom with patient, beginner-friendly instruction in Boyleston's Quadrille. Finally, we will gather together to enjoy tea and refreshments and celebrate our first Quadrillion of the school year!

We’re combating this gloomy June weather with a return to our gloriously sunny May Blossoms Ball! We opened the evening with one of our favorite circle sets.
If you too are craving more regency dancing we hope to see you in Harvard Square this weekend for our partner class with Fit for Fiction!
