Have you ever wondered how to present at Arts and Sciences events?  How do they come up with their displays, their documentation and creations?  How do you choose and present at Bardic, whether it’s at a circle, or competing for a Championship?

Wonder no more!  Come to Lions Stage with what you have so far and have your questions answered!  Have you no idea of what to present? or expect while presenting? Come and ask your questions!

Do you feel too new to ever do ANYTHING like THAT?  Come and see how it’s done and learn that you too can participate in Arts and Sciences joyfully and offer up a new thought or direction into our culture of history!

Lions Stage is where you come to gain feedback and answers to Baronial Competitions, Displays and Presentations!  We will have our Champions and experienced Arts and Sciences mentors available for chatting with and gaining the tips and tricks they’ve gleaned through their experiences!

Note this is a one day event.

What you will find at this event:
