Middle Ages return with Society for Creative Anachronism event April 20
History comes alive when Jackson Community College welcomes the Society for Creative Anachronism local branch, the Shire of Talonval, to the Jackson campus from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, April 20.
The Society for Creative Anachronism is dedicated to researching and re-creating the arts and skills of the Middle Ages and Renaissance, pre-17th century Europe. Members research the life and times of people from that era and recreate daily life at events that are living history. Visitors will have the opportunity to see firsthand arts and crafts such as weaving, inscribing and calligraphy, see dances from the period and much more.
Laurie Adamo of Jackson is a member of SCA and will be participating with The Shire of Talonval. She said the Jackson area SCA group is planning this event to help promote it to more students, with activities located in the center of campus. SCA is a recognized JCC interest group.
There is no charge for the event, and the community is welcome.
