Classes, Geek Sessions, Demos

Are you interested in teaching a class, doing a demo or hosting a geek session at Egils Tourney this year? We would love to hear from you before May 1, 2025. We can work with you to find the best format for what you want to offer or you can simply tell us what you already have organized. If you have questions, contact Mistress Yseult of Broceliande, Pam Perryman on Facebook or email her at egils@antir.org with “A&S classes” in the subject line. 

For reference, 

A Class can be a lecture presentation or an explanation of how to do something with time and materials to practice. You can charge materials cost – you collect that at the time of the class.

A Geek Session is you showing up with some materials – things you’ve made, books, some research you’ve done, etc., and hosting a discussion with other people interested in geeking out about your topic.

A Demo is you setting up and doing your thing. People walk by and watch, hang out, chat with you. 

Please click on the presenter sign-up form below or email Mistress Yseult the complete information about your offering at egils@antir.org with ‘A&S Classes’ in the subject line. 

Information about A&S offerings is due by May 1 so that we have time to make a schedule and publicize it before the event. We will publish partial lists of classes available as we receive them.

To list your offering, we need the following information:

  • Type:  Class / Geek Session / Demo
  • Title of your offering
  • Your full SCA and modern names
  • How best to contact you if we have questions
  • Time needed (in half hour increments)
  • Any special needs about space? (Every class & geek space is in a pavilion and has one 6’ table; more can be arranged. We have a sturdy outdoor picnic table that can work for some demos.)
  • Scheduling preference (Saturday or Sunday, morning or afternoon, or not opposite some other activity)

For classes we also need:

  • size limit if it’s a hands on learn-a-skill class: 
    • # who can participate; 
    • additional number who could just watch
  •  recommended age limit if needed (a year or something like ‘old enough to use a needle & thread’ or ‘handle flame’, etc. All children 12 and under must be accompanied by a parental unit per SCA rules)
  •  materials / tools students should bring (everyone will be asked to bring seating)
  • cost of materials (if there is any)
  • pre-registration requirements and your contact info if applicable (you will handle any pre-reg for your class)

This can all be filled out in the following form:
