What is the SCA?

While dressed in clothing of the Middle Ages and Renaissance, you can experience tournaments, royal courts, feasts, and dancing. You also have the opportunity to learn and practice ancient arts and skills — calligraphy, cooking, armoring, metalworking, carpentry, and needlework (to name just a few) — within an all-ages social group. The SCA is a great place to make friends and learn transferable skills. 

“The Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) is an international non-profit volunteer educational organization. The SCA is devoted to the research and re-creation of pre-17th century skills, arts, combat, culture, and employing knowledge of world history to enrich the lives of participants through events, demonstrations, and other educational presentations and activities.”

How do I get started?

The easiest way to get started is to reach out to our Newcomer Officer (the “Chatelaine”) and come to practices! All practices are open to anyone interested, no membership required! If you’re hesitant to just show up, we recommend posting on our facebook page or sending an email to the chatelaine showing interest and virtually introducing yourself. We’re an incredibly friendly bunch and love to welcome new people.
