The festival celebrates the inventions and changes of the renaissance period.
LORE was
organized around an educational goal. The purpose of the organization
is to provide the means through which participants; potential
participants, history enthusiasts and educators can develop or expand
their skills and background in world history. The immersion weekends
provide an opportunity for participants to work with other
knowledgeable participants and professionals in an instructional
setting. Certification is available for those who wish to pursue a
structured study of the various aspects of historical life.
