About

The Fellowship of Arts & Mysteries, Ltd., and its secondary school, Collegium Kingsgate, offer a unique educational approach which harmonizes Classical education with traditional apprenticed trades. This philosophy recognizes that, just as two rivers converge to form a mightier one, the merging of these two educational streams shaped the Judæo-Christian Western society in which we live. By reuniting the demonstrated strengths of Classical learning with hands-on trades, this philosophy provides a strong alternative to modern post-Christian educational models.

Take a few moments to become acquainted with the people who have embraced this vision and who are working to establish The Fellowship and Collegium Kingsgate.

At Kingsgate, scholars are equipped with a Biblical worldview and the cultural strengths of Classical Christian education, while simultaneously mastering trades through a master-apprentice model. This harmonization of Classical learning with practical trade skills aims to form socially-skillful, genuinely-Christian leaders for the future.

Through The Fellowship, we endeavour to make the Fine Arts, the Common Arts, and the Arts & Mysteries broadly accessible. Our current endeavors include shoemaking, leatherworking, eighteenth-century dancing, lectures, and more. The Fellowship aims to foster a love for Truth, Goodness, and Beauty, while also contributing to the local community through trade and craftsmanship.
