I will be making tintypes at Fort Clinch during the “The Golden Teacup Society’s 21st annual Ladies’ Encampment” April 15-16, 2023.
Spectators are welcome to get their picture made during public hours (9:00 am – 4:30).
Pre-registration is required FOR THE ENCAMPMENT AND ANY OF ITS ACTIVITIES. Any person not pre- registered for the encampment may not remain inside the Fort after it closes to the public. Link is at the bottom of this page.
Men in period attire are welcome to register, but must sleep in their designated area (separate accommodations in the infirmary) and may pay the meals-only fee.
If you’re only coming for a picture, that’s absolutely fine, and you do not have to stay or register. But you will have to reserve your picture time in advance.
