What is the SCA?
The Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) is a non-profit, educational group that re-creates the Western European Middle Ages in pre-1600 times. We say “re-create” because instead of re-enacting specific historical events, we choose aspects of pre-1600 life to re-create through the use of a “persona”, a character we create who could have lived during the Middle Ages.
Our artisans research, create and teach fiber arts, music, poetry, dancing, singing, cooking, metalworking, tailoring, armoring and more. Others study and re-create martial activities including armored combat, fencing, and archery.
The SCA’s “Known World” consists of 20 kingdoms and over 30,000 members around the globe (view SCA Geography). The Shire of Caer Adamant is in the East Kingdom and encompasses all of Delaware. Through the dedication and incredible work of our members and volunteers, we host regular activities and events through the year.
