Join several hundred aficionados of the 1920's and 30's as they step back to a time when elegance was a way of life...at the Gatsby Summer Afternoon the panoramic front lawn of the historic Dunsmuir Helman House becomes the stage on which every participant dresses in vintage-day wear styles of the era..they play, picnic, sip champagne and dance; the Charleston and Fox Trot was all the rage...it is reminiscent of a scene from the famous 1925 novel - The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald's.."Can't repeat the past? Why of course you can!" Jay Gatsby.
