Alcuin Club

The Alcuin Club is an Anglican organization seeking to preserve or restore church ceremony, arrangement, ornament, and practice in an orthodox manner.

In order to reach a broader audience, the Anglican priest Percy Dearmer and later faculty member of King’s College for sacred art, worked to spread the club's message.

He sought to win artists and craftsmen with high aesthetic standards for liturgical work in churches and chapels.

Its second publication, for instance, was Exposition de la messe from La legende dorée of Jean de Vignay, including illuminations reproduced from holdings in the Fitzwilliam Museum;[3] these had little immediate connection to the Book of Common Prayer.

Today, the Alcuin Club selects works on liturgy, ceremony, and hagiography for awards.
