Welcome to the Calontir Metal and Glassworkers' Symposium!

What to expect: The Symposium is a hands-on event dedicated to the medieval arts of Metal and Glass. Expect a solid offering of hands-on classes where you can get dirty, make something, and take it home with you. In the evenngs, we'll have the bonfire going, with the songs and stories of Calontir.

Food and water: the nearest food is 9 miles off site. We will have a full complement of Inns covering breakfast, lunch and dinner for Saturday and Sunday, and breakfast on Monday. Water comes from a cistern onsite.
