Welcome to the researching and doing!
We are lucky in Philadelphia and at the University of Pennsylvania to have access to several major research libraries, librarians, and resources. There are museums and rare books & manuscripts collections.
There are members with kitchens and herb gardens. Our barony has people with full brewing set ups and community brewing days. We have people willing to lend you a sewing machine. We have lampwork kits and annealing kilns. We have so many reference materials. Come and share anything you are interested in, and maybe someone will join in with what they’ve also learned in this area.
The East Kingdom MoAS page has resources for artisans, for teaching & learning, and for competitions & displays.
