Athenaeum 2026

Athenaeum is an Art and Sciences event where registered Artisans and Scientists display their work to Laurels and to members of the populace. This is not judged, but an opportunity for an exchange of ideas and appreciation of the work done behind the scenes.
The schedule includes a day of viewing the displays of the artists, talking to exhibitors, socializing with attendees, and both Royal and Baronial Court. We encourage you to attend and see all of the wonderful projects and engage with the artists.
Athenaeum is designed to be a place for artisans to display the breadth of their artistic abilities and receive valuable feedback and commentary from the Laurels of An Tir, and artisans, and attendees at the event in a relaxed, collaborative, and engaging environment.
