The Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) is an international non-profit educational organization devoted to the study of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. It is part of the "living history" movement, which means that members try to reproduce various aspects of the culture and technology of their period, as well as doing more traditional historical research.

Peterborough's Society for Creative Anachronism group (called Petrea Thule) meets twice monthly for talks and hands-on workshops. Everyone is welcome to attend, only an interest in the period is essential. Meetings are held on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month at Wallis Hall Room 128, Traill College, Trent University. Some of our recent workshops and talks have including Brass Rubbings, Heraldry, and Pottery Making. For the current schedule, please contact: kbates@pipcom.com
