A huge thank you to everyone who came out to the Spring Ball last week!πŸ’
It was such a delight to have you all looking so splendid, dancing so beautifully and enjoying the magical music πŸͺ­
It was truly a wonderful way to round off an academic year and say a fond farewell to our beloved King’s Manor.

Can you believe it’s already the last talk of the semester? And what better way to finish off the year than with Uni of York’s own Sam Dominy and his talk β€˜The Tolerationist Reading of John Child’s Apostasy’ on Tuesday May 27th at 5.30!

The Spring Ball has music, so naturally we should want dancing as well πŸ’ƒπŸ»

You can’t have a ball without some music, right?

We are delighted to announce that Eboracum String Quartet will be providing music for our Spring Ball! We are so so stoked to have them playing some lovely 18th century tunes for us 🎻

Also, though formal (and period) dress is encouraged, it is by no means required so come wearing whatever makes YOU feel the most resplendent, there is no strict dress code 🌸
