It was a time of high art, extremely skilled craftsmen, a surge in literacy, and the birth of Humanism, the notion that all people are worthy of respect and agency, and that a better world can be achieved through science, logic, and reason. I love the colors and textures and script and aesthetic, and that is part of what you get at a Renaissance Faire.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s also appealing in that it is an immersive experience for attendees, allowing anyone to lose themselves in the theatricality of it all. I suppose all of this is a long way around of saying, &#8220;It&#8217;s fun,&#8221; especially if you allow yourself to sink into the experience.<\/p>\n<p>More information and ticket sales are forthcoming; you can check for updates on <a href=\"https:\/\/lhuca.org\/renaissance-faire\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">LHUCA&#8217;s website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Did you know Texas is home to one of the largest\u00a0Renaissance Faire&#8217;s in the world?
