Language of the Fan

Decode the secret signals of courtship and etiquette from Regency England with Language of the Fan. Bought to you by Swashbuckling Cornwall. 

This event will explore how Regency ladies (and men) used fans to flirt, deflect, or entice—all without saying a word. 

Learn and practice the historical gestures that once spoke volumes, along with bit of fan history in this pre-Valentine’s activity!

Perfect for those who are looking for a ‘FAN’ time and a different way to engage with the past, whether you are a fan of Austen, Bridgerton or another regency drama this is for you! 

Swashbuckling Cornwall is known for its work with the blade on stage and screen but now invites you to explore this even more deadly weapon- the fan. 

The event lasts approximately 1hr

Suitable for 16+ 

Individuals and groups welcome.
