Madame Askew and The Grand Arbiter

The last year has been filled with adventures from the wild to the sublime. We started our year of travels with the wonderful folk at CONpossible in February and found our way home to Wild West Con in March. We survived calamity there with all of that wonderful, stalwart community, and continued onward with a year filled with more interviews and special guests than ever. We experimented with new workshops and a regular sewing social on Patreon. Most surprising of all, we made it to Seattle WorldCon where I won a major costuming award.  Through it all, you, my darling, were there on the Steampunk CommuniTea Discord, at our live streams, on our Patreon, and so many other places. Whether in person or virtually, connecting with you was the highlight of the year.

And now we are turning our plots towards grand adventures in this coming year! I cannot wait to share more splendid moments with you and to get up to more cheeky nonsense together.

And so, my darlings, please allow me to unleash our January Calendar of events.  With the start of the new year, I am delighted for the comfort of our regular virtual events. I’ve missed you all during our holiday breaks!  Thank you for embracing a new year of our cheeky, joyful adventures.

Join us all month for a treat box full of Tea, CommuniTea, Kindness, and Art!  All Times set for Pacific (Seattle). Our kind reminder that all of our times are set for Pacific time (Seattle) because Arizona does not indulge in Daylight Savings.

With the turning of the year, our schedule may return to a more stately pace, but we are also off for adventures at beloved ConPossible in February and or our dearest home convention Wild Wild West Con in March! The Tippy Golden Teacup Awards are happening this year in February so watch for nominations and voting in the coming weeks. And I have no doubt there will be a surprise or two throughout the month!

Our Patreon CommuniTea not only keeps our teapots brewing, but our subscribers, especially from Biscuit to Darjeeling, are also a fundamental part of the Temporal Entourage sparkle. If you would adore being part of that magic and having an opportunity to vote on our Patrons’ Corner topics, suggest future special guests, or gain special access to workshops and classes, then please become a member of our Patreon for as little as a dollar a month!
