Dear Friends,

We are incredibly excited to announce that on Sunday, January 14th, 2024 we will be holding an 18th Century Ball in Winter Park, Florida: Fête Minuet (pronounced Fett Menu-ett)

Of course, we lack the architecture to hold the event in an actual historical building. This era was roughly 100 years before the City of Winter Park was even founded (in 1887). BUT we have partnered with The Winter Park Events Center and have come up with some really unique ways to bring the Ball to life. This is a gorgeous space with glass that over looks an 18th century-inspired garden and lake.

Believe me when I say that it will be one INCREDIBLE evening!!! This will be a costumed ball. Think Marie Antoinette, Queen Charlotte, etc.

There will be dance instructors to teach the Minuet. And a costume contest. We will give you links and resources for costume rental and purchase. We are in the process of partnering with local businesses in the area to meet these needs. Tickets will be limited and once they are sold out, it will be difficult to get one. Parking for the event will be free and will be available on a first come, first serve basis.

The ball will be held in Winter Park, Florida but open to friends from all over the world (over the age of 18). If a younger person would like to attend the Ball, please have them pen a letter to Kelley Graham explaining why they would like to attend. Special exceptions will be made for young costumers, actors, and ballroom dancers, as long as a chaperone is attending.

We look forward to dancing and dining with you,

Kelley & David Graham
