ADDITIONAL RESOURCES

The Kennedy Masquerade Compendium (1981) edited by Peggy Kennedy is the seminal volume on running Masquerade contests. The Masquerade Handbook edited by Janet Wilson Anderson is another early resource on the topic. Regrettably, both volumes are currently out of print.

The ICG and its chapters frequently publish articles on the art of Masquerade production.

Some articles may be found in back issues of The International Costumer Newsletter. (https://www.costume.org/wp/the-internat ional-costumer-newsletter/)

Of particular note, the article “Running a Small Masquerade” was published in issues 4 and 5 of volume VI (2007) (https://www.costume.org/wp/the-international-costumer-newsletter/ #2007). It is also available on the author’s website. (https:// www.twistedimage.com/costume/articles/Running%20a%20small
%20 Masquerade.pdf)

The Virtual Costumer, the quarterly magazine of the Silicon Web Costumers’ Guild, has also published several articles on Masquerade production. Back issues may be found at https:// www.siwcostumers.org/vc_contents.html. Volume 14, issue 1 (2016) is dedicated entirely to “The Art of the Masquerade.”  (https:// www.siwcostumers.org/vc_contents.html#v14_i1)

The International Costumers’ Guild is developing a modern library of Masquerade related resources for costumers and Masquerade participants and organizers. This document is part of that project.
