I noticed that a few are from Caid and thought I'd put up an advert for our yearly collegium over here. This year we're doing something a bit...different. So different that we're expecting even a few people from the West to drive down and visit our shire. The following advert will be in the Crown...uh...I think this month.

IT’S FILTHY! IT’S DIRTY! IT’S…..EDUCATIONAL?
The Shire of the Isles is hosting a collegium for those arts that are just too dirty to cover within the traditional setting: arts that make a mess, require more time, materials, or a less restrictive setting. In addition we will also be featuring some figuratively filthy arts: including aspects of bardic and dance that imply so much more!
By the time you're reading this, we will have figured out who will teach what when, and posted it at http://www.mrows.org/filthydirty/ In the meantime, here's a sampling of the planned classes:
Site opens opens at 9am. Classes will run from 10am to late afternoon, followed by a succulent feast, and bardic circle in the evening. Site closes when the siteocrat gets sleepy, or midnight or so.
Come get dirty with the Shire of the Isles!
Site, Directions and Fees:
Our site will be the College of Creative Studies at UC Santa Barbara, on UCen Rd. There is no street address.
Directions:
From the East:
Directions from the North and West:
Site fee: $10. Make checks payable to SCA Inc./Shire of Isles
Please see the collegium website at http://www.mrows.org/filthydirty/ for further information and class schedule. If you have any questions, contact our event steward.
