June 11 | The last Tuesday social before June Faire! |
BARONIAL EVENT June 14–16th in Silverdale, WA. June Faire is our BIGGEST baronial event of the year! We take over the Kitsap County Fairgrounds for the weekend and hold a huge public demo on Saturday (called the “Kitsap Medieval Faire”). | |
June 18 | NEWCOMER night – join us to welcome the new SCA-curious people we met at June Faire. Bring a project to work on, something to demonstrate, and yourselves. (Contact our Chatelaine for more coordination details.) |
June 25 | June Faire in review – starts at 6:30pm. All are welcome to join the event “debriefing” meeting. What worked best? What could be improved next year? |
REGIONAL EVENT June 29th in Kirkland, WA. The Barony of Madrone hosts Athenaeum, an exhibition dedicated to arts and sciences. Pre-register for a lunchbox! More info on the Kingdom calendar and Facebook. | |
upcoming | MULTI-KINGDOM EVENT July 2–7th in Gold Beach, OR. An Tir West War is so big, it has its own website https://antirwestwar.org/ (and is also on Facebook). |
We look forward to these yet-to-be-scheduled activities:
- Countess Elisabeth de Rossignol has been formulating plans on clothing construction.
- Marquessa Laurellen du Brandevin has been contemplating a satchel class, including both construction and embroidery.
We would sincerely love to host more Arts and Sciences activities in the upcoming months. They do NOT have to be simply ‘classes’. They can be lectures, demonstrations, round tables, interactive discussion. The possibilities are endless. Let me know if you have ideas in mind. I will help you make them a reality.
You can reach Master Arontius in our unofficial baronial Facebook group or at DragonsLaire.ArtNSci@AnTir.org
Reminder: The Baronial Chatelaine, Aoife Aileanach is looking for people from Dragon’s Laire to give short lectures and vignettes on various subjects of the SCA. “I’m basically looking for an extension of what we have on display at June Faire (costume making, cooking info, weaving, spinning, metal work, archery equipment, etc).” She is envisioning 15-min talks, just enough to give new members an introduction. If you are available and willing to give a short presentation, please contact DragonsLaire.Chatelaine@AnTir.org .
