🛡️ Who are we?
Esperance of Adria is a chapter of the Adrian Empire which is a Non-Profit Educational Medieval Recreation Organization.
Our members study and re-create the arts, skills, and culture in the medieval and renaissance between 793 and 1625.
We conduct regular monthly events with archery, arts, and combat tournaments as well as several camping events each year. We also setup demonstrations at schools, malls, markets, and myriad other events. Members can earn points to obtain knighthoods within the organization in various disciplines.
This unofficial weekly event is our opportunity to practice technique and get some passes in between tournaments.
As an educational organization, we thrive on welcoming and teaching newcomers. Come join us!
