Not a GBVS event, but I hope to see plenty of you at Gatsby on the Isles this year!  Old as Adam Vintage and Antiques is a great supporter of local vintage events and this is their sixth year bringing us this event.

Come aboard for the Gatsby on the Isles, a 1920s bash on the high seas, featuring live music by the Wolverine Jazz Band, lawn games, and a picnic on the Isles of Shoals. Join us for just the day or spend the night on the island for an evening of dancing at the historic hotel. It’s a summer jaunt guaranteed to be the bee’s knees. Learn more & buy tickets at http://oldasadam.com/gatsby-on-the-isles/

This is it!  Don’t miss out on getting your ticket for this year’s Roaring Twenties Lawn Party!  GBVS will be there once again providing the array of vintage vendors and jazz age era cars your enjoyment.  Come by and check out the inventory or take a ride in an antique auto!  Click HERE for full info and tickets.

GBVS is teaming up with the Mechanized Warfare Museum to bring you a brand new event this year: the Deerfield, NH WWII Weekend!  Come see America’s contribution to WWII in realistic encampments and battle reenactments. Watch period vehicles in action including actual WWII tanks!. Wear your vintage 40’s outfit and dance to the hits of two live big band performances!  Plus the USO show is hosted by none other than Mr. Bob Hope himself!

The show is open to the general public from 10-5pm each day and admission is only $20!  We encourage guests to come dressed up in 1940’s outfits.  Full info can be found on the website www.wwiiweekend.com

Normally a 1920’s themed speakeasy, the White Lightning Ball has progressed to the mid-1930’s.  The depression has finally slowed and this year we celebrate a grand feat, the End of Prohibition!  Get ready for a spectacular evening that includes: swing music by “Amy Kucharik and Friends”, dancing, a period casino with “gambling” games, hors d’oeuvres, full cash bar, access to the entire Larz Anderson Museum collection, vintage vendors, performances, and more!

Come early for the free dance lesson by Providence Swings of RI and to shop the vintage vendors.  Period attire encouraged.  Tickets can be purchased on the Larz Anderson website by clicking HERE or on the photo above!

We have some really great photos from this year’s Winter Formal!  This is thanks to our photo booth cameraman Tom Hagar and our roaming photographers Michael Rose (of Michael Rose Photography) and Joan Jasset (A Timeless Collection).  Check out their work below:

GBVS is helping promote a new act coming to Boston, the “Vaughn Monroe Show”! This is a tribute show to the great bandleader of the 1940’s. Dan Gabel of the Abletones Band has put together this 24-piece ensemble show featuring music, the Moon Maids vocal group, comedy sketches, and vintage ads.

GBVS members will be attending in their 1940’s outfits. This will make for a very authentic feel in the historic Somerville Theater! Come dressed up or not, there’s no requirement.  This is a fun show for the whole family and will have a special discount for our veterans on this holiday weekend.  Click on the photo to go to their website or you can click HERE to directly go to the ticket sales page.
