Arts & Sciences Activities: Competitions for:
Dirty Bakers Dozen Largesse Competition – It is always an honor to be able to present our Royal Majesties with bounty from our Canton that they may gift to the populace. This competition will put not only your skills but your thoughtfulness and imagination to the test. Each entry must contain a total of a baker’s dozen of like items (13 pouches, for example). That’s right, 13 like items of your choosing to present as largesse. First place gets their choice of one of the largesse items, the other 12 are donated, second place gets second choice, etc.
Scroll Blanks \"Blankapalooza\" - This competition is for the scribe in all of us. This is an illumination competition to provide blank scrolls for both Barony and Kingdom. Choose a destination and grab a brush. Be bold and try something new; a bright color, a beautiful style, a bonzo material like leather, rock or wood! Bling it and bring it! There will be prizes for the best executed and most creative in both baronial and kingdom blank categories. *Please refer to the scribal handbooks for barony and kingdom as needed for basic expectations of size, margins if frameable, etc.
