The Steppes Calligraphy and Illumination Guild is a group of people within the Barony that get together at least once a month to paint, create, share and enjoy the common interest we all have; which is creating the beautiful works of art that are given as awards within the SCA.

We have members that paint, we have members that enjoy recreating the hands of ancient calligraphers, and we have those that enjoy creating new works of art from scratch for the others to bring to life with their paints and calligraphy! It is a true collaborative effort of all involved.

Of course, there are the small side benefits of things like chocolate, and the sharing of stories from events past, and getting to know more people in your Barony.

"But I am not an artist!"

If you can hold a paint brush, color in the lines, and are willing to learn, you don't have to be an artist to participate!
