2025 was our biggest, most magical year yet. We traveled through time and space, from a 1920s speakeasy to enchanted siren waters, from faerie forests to Vampire conclaves. No matter where we went, the spirit of whimsy, creativity, and collaboration led the way. We are lucky to be immersed in a community of such talented humans who, time after time, help bring these visions to life 🙏🏻. There’s so many to name, but a few of the core creators this year were:
0 - Master maker whose skills gave us stages, lights, bars, signs, and even a seashell chair, this year Derby once again took our dreams and made them reality 🛠️
- Actor and playwright extraordinaire, who never says no to a challenge 🎭. From short skits to full length adventure epics, Zack brings humor and humanity to life through his tales of epic proportions.
- Is there anything this woman can’t do? Sing, dance, act… Elena does it all and we’re in awe of her magic each and every time she graces one of our events ✨
- From our first event three years ago, she’s been adding her whimsy to nearly every gathering, with her popular tea parties, enchanting elixir classes, her role emceeing the Bees Knees Jazz Club, and, most recently, welcoming travelers into her wondrous Trading Post at Siren’s Cove. Molly’s enthusiasm and creativity are an endless delight to behold 🥰.
Here’s to a very full year of magic, giggles, big dreams, hard work, sweat, tears, imagination, and connection 🥂.
We can’t wait to see what 2026 will bring!
Cheers,
Andrea & Joanie
