The Big Bear Valley Renaissance Society Inc., is anon profit corporation founded in October 2002 for the purpose of re-enacting historical time periods, such as the English Renaissance, for the education and entertainment of the public. We plan to do this by producing events and providing workshops. We are a 501(c)3 non profit educational corporation. The Renaissance Faire, our initial re-enactment, is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors. Our primary financial goal is to provide educational funds for youth and teachers. The funds will be used for, but not limited to, scholarships, teacher support funds and educational opportunities.Our historical re-enactments provide meaningful and positive educational, athletic, artistic, and social benefits for the entire valley. In addition, the events also provide increased business opportunities for the community. Our events result in personal enrichment, enjoyment and a sense of community.
