Weekend programs

 Well, these suggestions are mostly for those, who are fairly close, but even for those of you, who have no chance of dropping by at one of these might be interesting, what are we up to... And I am often asked, where can our little reenactment, interpreter group seen.

There are two days of a year, for which we have a saying, if you want Mare Temporis (or group), you have to reserve it at least a year, or even two years before.

One is the early Victorian March event, the anniversary or the 1848 revolution, the other is... even worst...

Each year, the Saturday closest to midsummer's night, there is a county-wide event, called the Night Of The Museums, when museums are open at the evenings, often until midnight or even longer, they organize special events, concerts, guided tours, and such. 

Our group is usually booked up to the top, this year we share five events between us. 

I, personally go to Róth Miksa Ház (The house of Miksa Róth, which is the house and workshop of a well known glass artist, living around the late Victorian, Edwardian era, up to the second world war.

We will be talking about their family, and how the family connects to the story of the city (of Budapest).

There will be the possible customer (talking about his lead-glass art), the workshop-employee, the relation, who left Europe in the 1910's, and me, the wife of an architect, the family worked with, and I will be talking about how the city changed in the 1870-ies, what role the Róth family played in it, how the big boulevard, the big avenue, and the big citypark was formed.

The Facebook event is here: Our program (The city in the glass mirror - Üvegben Tükröződő város) will be on from 6PM and 9 PM.

Come see us.
