Welcome to the Casa Bardicci Community
Casa Bardicci is the splendid Palazzo built each year at the Pennsic War at the behest of His Excellency Baron Bardicci, whose charismatic Patronage makes our creative adventures possible. It is a creation of great labor and commitment - but offers rewards of glory and renown to those who dare to undertake the effort .
Our Most Generous Patron provides us with a glorious Villa, as well as the opportunity to exercise our skills and labor to create it because this Villa is built on a foundation of vapor - each year assembled by a dedicated team of friends and fellow members of the Society for Creative Anachronism who are driven by a passion for the Dream. No two versions have ever been the same; each time it is newly built in a different location at Cooper's Lake, Pennsylvania during high summer. The rest of the year it hibernates in storage and a modern-day bus until it is called forth again. Some elements of the production travel with it's builders.
A 21st century re-imagining of a 15th century Italian villa, Casa Bardicci is an elaborate set composed by the merchant artisans of Future Relics to showcase the talents of musicians, entertainers, and artists who bring the atmosphere and ambiance of this rare architectural gem to life during two parties and our Open House. The Villa houses three separate areas for performances, living quarters, and kitchen/catering commanding over 10,000 square feet of entertainment real estate.
Grand Arts Patronage!
