What is there to do…?
The Greater Boston Vintage Society presents the first ever “Vintage Oasis”! Bringing tropical warmth to New England winter, we welcome you to a fun vintage and tropical weekend at the historic (and oh so kitschy) Sturbridge Host Hotel. Whether you are just into vintage clothing or a total tiki aficionado, the Oasis has something for both. Here is the Preliminary Schedule for our 2025 event.
