Staff Only! Greetings Æthelmearc from the Chancellors of the Æcademy,

We are looking for bids for both the Spring and Fall Æcademies in hopes that both can be in-person events with the potential for a virtual component as well.

Spring Æcademy: Preferred date June 18, 2022. As we are past the bid deadline, we are open to any group hosting.  Bids are due March 1, 2022.

Fall Æcademy: Preferred date November 12, 2022.  Rotation is to Region 4.  Bids are due April 1, 2022.

We are looking for sites ideally with the following (but will entertain any proposed bid):

  • a minimum of 5 rooms suitable for classes
  • WiFi capability – this is not a requirement but as we would like to try a hybrid in-person/virtual event we are hoping for the possibility
  • an area (indoors or out) for martial classes
  • a large commons area and suitable changing rooms, royalty room, and bathrooms
  • handicap-accessibility

Please feel free to contact us with any questions!
fridrikrinngamli@gmail.com or baronessorianna@gmail.com

In service,
Fridrikr Tomasson and Orianna Fridrikskona

Mistress Alicia Langland has compiled this list of opportunities to teach and learn arts and sciences across our Kingdom.

Their Highnesses have aptly named April the A&S month in Æthelmearc!

The Ice Dragon’s Passing signals the beginning of a month of opportunities to teach and learn.  Enjoy!

April 9:  Spring 2016 Æthelmearc Coronation, Shire of Gryffyns Keep

Features an A&S display and an Embroiderer’s Solar, a designated space for embroiderers and needleworkers to work on their latest project, share resources and books, and have fun together!

April 16:  Siege of Harlech IV, Barony-Marche of Debatable Lands

A brewing-only competition, organized by Master Tofi Kerthjalfadsson, to keep besieged spirits cheerful.

April 23:  AEthelmearc A&S Faire, Shire of Hartstone

An exhibition to display the talents of artisans who have a Sycamore or no kingdom A&S award.  Exhibits will be evaluated by teams of 3-4 evaluators, who will discuss the exhibit with the entrant after viewing the documentation and the exhibit.

April 24:  Scribal Workshop, Barony-Marche of Debatable Lands

Limited to just 20 participants, this all-day workshop will focus on the Macclesfield Psalter, a 14th century English manuscript.  After an overview of the Psalter and its elements, participants will learn early period painting/shading techniques, whitework, diapering, gilding and calligraphy.  Registrations and questions may be sent to MistressAntoinettedelaCroix@gmail.com.

April 24:  Regional Scribal Playtime, Shire of Hartstone

BMDL too far to travel on a Sunday?  Join Region 4 scribes for a hands-on gilding workshop hosted by Mistress Sthurrim Caithnes and Mistress Tiercelin.

April 28 – May 1:  Blackstone Raid XXV, Barony of Blackstone Mountain

Classes, an A&S Display, and a Scribal Playtime will offer plenty of opportunities to teach and learn.  To offer to teach, use the on-line form here or contact the event’s Arts and Sciences Coordinator, Lady Kathryn McLuing, at artsandsciences@blackstoneraid.org

April 30:  Pen vs. Sword IV, Shire of Angels Keep
