Canton of Ynys y Gwaed
It is with great pleasure that Ynys y Gwaed announces its Sunday Afternoon Arts and Sciences sessions. Sessions are Free, but it is suggested that you bring your own projects and snacks.(see below for details)

Thanks to the hard work of our seneschal Lady Marlena, A&S Sundays are held on a weekly Holland College in Charlottetown.

Gym is available for fight practice.

Classroom 14 for projects e.g. sewing, embroidery, art, music, writing sessions, and a lot more to come. 2 p.m and close at 5 p.m.

Come to the Weymouth Street Main entrance. You will be asked to sign in and out. The security guard will give you directions.

Medieval Garb is optional, but bring your own project materials.

A sewing machine is sometimes available, but if you are working on a large sewing project, it is best to bring your own machine. Same goes with fighting gear.

Oh, yes. bring your own snacks and beverages. There are vending machines available, but with limited selections and somewhat pricey. Unfortunately there are no cooking facilities available in this building. (if we decide to do a cooking demo, other facilties will be announced)

For more information please contact the Canton Seneschal, Lady Marlena at seneschal_yyg@ruantallan.eastkingdom.org.
