All proceeds of this Renaissance Faire benefit the Stickney House Foundation. The Stickney House Foundation is an independent foundation dedicated to restoration and preservation of the original home of the George Stickney family. Built in 1849, this Italianate style house is designed to have no 90 degree angles, giving it its unique appearance and round corners.  The Stickney House is registered on the National Register of Historic Places. Stickney house has recently begun to show its true beauty thanks to restoration made possible by a private donor, but more work is needed to truly bring out this historic gem.  Stickney House is currently the home of the Village of Bull Valley government center.
