Virtual Kingdom Collegium
Collegium is all about learning! We gather for an event filled with classes about the Middle Ages!
Classes during the Collegium can be informative lectures, interactive demonstrations or even make and take projects. They range from many different beginner classes as well as things for advanced artisans to discover. Classes cover a wide range of topics including brewing, dancing, textile arts such as embroidery, weaving, and patterning, lamp work, metalwork, heraldry, and more! If you’ve every wanted to know “what more is there to do?” this is an event you cannot attend without picking up a new interest or two….or ten.

Arts and Sciences Collegium
We look forward to offering classes in cooking, embroidery, garb, leatherwork, the martial arts, metalwork, music, weaving, etc…and not just a single class for a subject but multiple classes that those who wish to learn may dive deep into their studies. TEACHERS, WE NEED YOU! Please sign up to teach using this form: https://forms.gle/evizHo7NuTwvfMJq8
The sign up sheets to attend classes will be available, in-person at the start of the event.
We hope to see the hall filled with classes and that every class will be full!! To encourage everyone to help fulfill this dream we offer a challenge. Each person will receive a site token (of course) and a small pouch as they enter the event. For every hour taught and every hour spent in class, participants will receive additional tokens. These tokens may be kept or given away to others as tokens of appreciation or inspiration. At the conclusion of the day, the person with the most tokens will win a prize.
Showcase Display
And what day of Arts and Sciences would be complete without a display?!? For those who wish to display, what they have already learned and created, they MAY:
* Display works-in-progress, completed works, or a combination.
* Provide written documentation or choose not to. The 1-page documentation form currently being used by the kingdom can be found at https://www.atenveldt.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/Atenveldt-Golden-Sun-AS-Documentation-.pdf?fbclid=IwAR3XQFMSHupW1TiE4OB5rJufOweY9vODf4SNT8t8znsldxgp4rVGgR6NIjA
* Display whatever # of items they choose, but should limit themselves to 3 feet of table space.
