What is the SCA?

The Society for Creative Anachronism is an international organization dedicated to researching and re-creating the arts and skills of pre-17th-century Europe. Our "Known World" consists of 19 kingdoms, with over 30,000 members residing in countries around the world. Members, dressed in clothing of the Middle Ages and Renaissance, attend events which feature tournaments, royal courts, feasts, dancing, various classes & workshops, and more.

No matter where you "reside" in the SCA geographically you are always welcome to "play" with any group. You don't even have to be a member! Maine is geographically vast, and sometimes you're just closer to people who aren't technically where you live! In the SCA, that's fine! We are all friends in this Current Middle Ages, and you're welcome to play with any group at any time!
