We are so excited to be teaming up with the Tidewater Renaissance Fighting Arts for our night of Revelry and Restoration! ✨

They will be educating us on the study and use of the weapons and armor of the late Middle Ages and Renaissance Europe, and providing demonstrations on historical European martial arts, more commonly known as HEMA. Their studies are based on the historical manuscripts that taught martial students how to fight with the weapons and armor of the time.
