Back when the 20’s were really roaring, Jack and Charmian London held court among artists and literati known as ‘the crowd.’ Recapturing that spirited era, Jack London Park threw a fundraiser Saturday night at the House of Happy Walls — ‘An Evening with The Crowd” — complete with deco costumes and music (Cole Porter, George Gershwin) of the day.

Champagne, caviar and cocktails were sipped in style, with food by the girl and the fig and performances by members of the Transcendence Theatre Company.

The museum space, once the home of Charmian London, will soon close for remodeling.
