Meet the Makers: Society for Creative Anachronism

Greetings and well met!
We present Bloomington, Indiana’s Society for Creative Anachronism, called Mynydd Seren.

The Society for Creative Anachronism, or SCA, is an international organization dedicated to researching and re-creating the arts, skills, and traditions of pre-17th-century Europe.

Members of the SCA study and take part in a variety of activities, including combat, archery, equestrian activities, costuming, cooking, metalwork, woodworking, music, dance, calligraphy, fiber arts, and much more. If it was done in the Middle Ages or Renaissance, odds are you’ll find someone in the SCA interested in recreating it.

Below are pictures from our local group. They even have a ballista! Woo!
