General Activities
A&S:
Martinmas is an ancient European harvest festival honoring St. Martin of Tours. Throughout the Middle Ages and up to the early-modern period, this feast marked the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter. We ask our artisans to join us in celebration by bringing forth a project inspired by the life of St. Martin or the traditions of Martinmas.
Thematic Challenges
The Cloak of Charity: St. Martin used his sword to cut his vibrant red cloak in half to share warmth with a beggar. Create an item in a rich red fabric.
The Illumination: Martinmas is a time to bring light to the coming winter. Create a light source—an ancient lamp, a humble candle, or a handcrafted lantern.
The Harvest Feast: The harvest is in; prepare a tasty offering worthy of giving thanks during this European Thanksgiving.
General Guidelines
Documentation is appreciated but not required. If you are providing an edible entry, please at the least, provide an ingredient list to allow our friends to avoid allergens.
Coming Soon: Details are also coming on a brewing challenge. Martinmas is celebrated as the time to taste newly made wines and beverages!
Open Display
We will have dedicated space for an open display of all manner of period craft. Share your passion with us—no judgement required!
