Prospective partners, sponsors, and purveyors take heed.
The Craftman's Gala is a great gathering of craftspeople coming together to teach, share, and sell the fruits of their trade. Magical or mundane, established or apprenticing, all those wishing to gather in the name of artistry are invited. If you have skill, this is an opportunity to sell your wares to a larger market. If you have none, this is an opportunity to learn a trade, as storied masters and instructors from about the planes will be present.
As last time, there will be forums and showcases, auctions and grand bazaar, and most certainly food, drink, and revelry. However, I am taking suggestions for events this time around. If there is something you would like to see, know, or host, please do contact me.
The planned site for this Gala is in Shadowscape. In addition, through partnership with the Citadel, Belenoth will serve as a sister site. During the Gala, all are expected to be gracious guests towards the hosting settlements. To do otherwise will end poorly. As a participant you are expected to compete with debate, wares, and wealth. Other forms of conflict will serve only to shame yourself as you are asked and then made to leave either by a golem, a nightwing, or a throng of fellow revelers.
The Date shall be announced within the next few tendays. As is tradition, I offer room and board to any craftsman staying within the city who has traveled from another plane. Prepare, ye artisans. The Gala approaches!
