The Arts and Sciences (A&S) are all the crafts, skills, and technologies practiced in the time period and cultures that the SCA covers. At any event or demo, you can find people spinning yarn, weaving fabric or trim, embroidering garments, making jewelry, chain mail, or plate armor, or any one of a number of activities that might have been done by people prior to 1600 CE. Arts & Sciences provide the foundation for the SCA. Without them, we wouldn't know what to wear, what to eat, or how to fight. In fact, just about any activity that a person in our period would have done would be considered appropriate to learn about. It is through A&S we learn how people lived and how things were done.

The SCA offers many ways to learn a new skill or gain knowledge in a particular field. If you are interested in any particular Art or Science, or just wish to learn how something was done in the past, chances are there is someone in the SCA who can help you learn, or at least point you in the right direction. Some of the many things we study and teach are:
