Create

Artisans and craftspeople come together to learn, teach, and create amazing works and beautiful objects.

From costuming and woodworking to music and theater, the possibilities for growing as a maker and artist are boundless.

Bring a skill that you already have and share it with others or take a class and learn from those who have been diving into an art for years. All are welcome and encouraged, from all skill levels!

Compete

Feel the thrill of full contact armored fighting using blunted axes, hammer, spears, and swords in both one-on-one tournament combat as well as large scale melee field battles!

Hone your skills with the blade in our fencing and cut and thrust programs besting your opponents through dexterity and speed in a variety of forms.

Live the legend of the unmatched marksman competing with other archers across the world with historical bows, or try your hand at throwing knives, axes, and more!

Experience the bond of horse and rider through the historical lens testing your skills in both mounted games and various forms of mounted combat.

Community

We come together at events to laugh, celebrate, and grow.

Life-long friendships, meaningful mentoring, and opportunities to grow and explore provide the fundamental community of the SCA.
