[Scriptoris] Scriptoris Digest, Vol 63, Issue 4

[David Brown]

The Barony of Raven's Fort Spring event 2012 is more than likely going to be a Masked Ball with 

various classes being taught. I am looking for people to teach Scribes type classes. Let me know if anyone on this list would like to teach a class.

Viviana and I are already discussing a class that I will be teaching in 
the near future in your area. We can get a group together and mix up 
some of those pigments for both the illuminators and painters. Maybe 
your fall event. ; )
