Winter has come and so is the time to prepare for the annual pilgrimage to the Kingdom Arts and Science Festival which is hosted this year by the Canton of Sudentorre.  This time honored tradition brings artisans, scholars, scientists and those who gather to see the talent, the awe, and the fun that brings out the best of Atlantia. 

Spend the day at the Marshall Building in Historic Spotsylvania Courthouse, Virginia where the Kingdom of Atlantia’s brightest and talented artisans will gather to display their Arts and knowledge in the Sciences.  Lunch will be provided to all who attend, so come and gather together with your friends to break bread and prepare to be fascinated by some of the Entertainment being offered throughout the day.
