Managed by Clan Morathes.
The Ashan Heritage Society ("the Society"), founded February 1, 309 AC, is a non-partisan, non-profit, volunteer-based organization dedicated to the promotion of Asha history by the exchange of ideas and information, the preservation and interpretation of resources, and the education of Asha about their heritage. It operates with a set vision of preserving, promoting, and educating, and integrating Ashan culture and diversity in the Crown City and the Archipelago.
The Society has an overall objective of providing a safe learning environment to all who want it regardless of their origins. We believe lack of access to education and the opportunity it provides only broadens the division between otherwise agreeable people, and the only way to rectify that divide is by offering both education and cultural exchange within Society funded and managed programs.
The goal of the Society is to conduct research and to preserve and disseminate knowledge relating to the history, archaeology, material culture, and geographical and socio-economic development of the Ashal States and their people found outside of it. The Society works toward this goal by making use of donations and sponsorship from Clan Morathes, in addition to orations and history passed down but otherwise not recorded, but free to the public.
Memberships and donations support all of these programs.
While donations of all kinds and memberships help support the Society, we are always in need of willing volunteers to lend a hand for projects and community efforts. If donations are outside your financial means, consider donating your time instead.
Membership is not required to participate in events, but does help support the Society. All events are open to the public, but may have a cap on participants depending on subject matter and activity type.
All members receive access to the Ashan Heritage Society Newsletter, a discount at select local businesses, early notice of special events, and admission to member only meetings after paying associated fees.* Membership fees are annual.
Sponsored Membership
In the event that paying dues and fees causes undue financial hardship, these fees will be waived and the members sponsored either through donations or resultant from consistent volunteer work. Sponsorship requires discussion with the current Chair, Duke Nefer shel Morathes.

Membership for one person at a cost of R$50.
Supporter Membership
Membership for one person at a cost of R$100.

Workshop: Exploring Family Ties
August 27th - 05:00 PM CST
Topics and activities will include but are not limited to the construction of family trees, "Show and Tell" where participants share a story from their family history or an heirloom, and discussions on the origins of various cultures (to be decided based on participant makeup).
Workshop: Nature & You
September 24th - 5 PM CST
Rather than the hunts Nobility participates in as a pastime or the hunts that commoners engage in by necessity, the Society offers an opportunity to become one with nature. All peoples have something that connects to the earth or shapes their perception of the world around them, and this workshop seeks to explain those connections and the opinions that arise from them.
