They are looking for class instructors for University of Ithra classes (2 hours long/limited enrollment) and brown bag or walk-in classes (lasts an hour or less?). There are yet to be any Scribal type classes offered, but since I would like to see some I'm sending to this list - How many of you would be able to attend and what would YOU like to see taught? The event has a web page http://www.vertetsable.com/kwas/ and the contact person for instructors is Lady Constance Davies kellmert@aii.edu . The deadline for signing up to teach is May 1 and catalogs for the event should be available at Pennsic. Wyewood is sponsorring the Hopitality Suite (where I will be at least part of the time) hope to see you!

Here's my picks on recommended museums: The Cloisters: Very popular place. You'd like the medieval setting, too. As the name implies, the museum does have a replicated cloister garden, and is well-known for the manuscript exhibits within, among other medieval items. It's located in Upper Harlem, and you can get to it from the Henry Hudson Parkway (north) - -- the first exit on the east side of the George Washington Bridge. Not sure what it's like in winter, but there's usually an SCA demo there every fall, right about when the leaves are starting to turn, making the view over the Hudson River and the garden setting that much more brilliant. Current Illuminated Manuscript Exhibits: The Hours of Jeanne d'Evreaux; The Belles Heures of Jean of France, Duke of Berry; among others (including woven, embroidered, and painted icons of those days...). Website: http://www.metmuseum.org/collections/department.asp?dep=7 Metropolitan Museum of Art: This one is a little easier to get to by public transportation. You can 1) Take a bus to it directly, near 82nd St. on 5th Avenue, or take a subway to the Museum of Natural History and cut through Central Park (during the daylight, on paved/busy paths/roads, unless you're REALLY looking for adventure...). Head due east and south, and you'll run into the Met Museum. If you're not pressed for time, you might run into 'Bedevere Castle', which is currently a weather station/children's activity center near the theater (you can't miss it, it looks like a miniature castle with a single tower, which can be entered during daylight hours. Bring a camera for this. :) ). Special (Scribal) Exhibits: Sultan cAli of Mashhad, Master of Nastacliq January 19, 2001–April 22, 2001 (Islamic 15th & 16th c. Calligraphy and Illumination) You can also locate the Islamic/Arabic art on the second floor; from the main entrance hall, hang a left at the top of the grand staircase, and walk along the balcony until you get to the Greco-Roman section. Last I knew, the Islamic art was over there (last time I was there was about 1 1/2 years ago). There *is* calligraphy and illumination at the museum, although not nearly as much as at the Cloisters; you may come across some scrolls in the Egyptian Art section too, if you look carefully enough. The museum sells some good C&I books -- I own two of the smaller pocket-sized ones, which run about $12 each or so. Museum Website: http://www.metmuseum.org/home.asp Local eateries: There's plenty of them if you head toward the 60's and lower street areas of 5th Avenue. The closest *theme* restaurant is the Harley Davidson Cafe, since Planet Hollywood moved to where the All-Star Cafe was, in Times Square. Museum food is not cheap. Other non-SCA but cool local/area attractions include FAO Schwartz, Trump Tower, The American Museum of Natural History, Lincoln Center, Guggenheim Museum, and Cooper-Hewitt Museum (all within a 2-3 mile radius).

I specifically refer to Arches 140# hot press paper.............can't say I've ever seen any late 15th century French MSS. illuminated on it, but then, I've only seen the stuff they put in those nice, big and expensive coffee table books that we all buy for the lovely exemplars they have in 'em!

I fear that I could not give an appropriate explanation between the two. However, there is a distinct difference. Hot pressed paper goes between hot rollers in the final stage of manufacture. This makes the surface smooth. Cold press omits this step, only going through cold rollers, and has a texture somewhere between eggshells and crepe paper. Rough (also called Not Pressed) is the familiar heavily textured watercolour paper. Arches Hot Pressed is also a favourite among non-medieval scribes, though if we aren't making it too wet we sometimes save money by using the 90 lb weight. 90 lb will also run through most copiers.
