The Endicott Studio is ‘an interdisciplinary organisation dedicated to the creation and support of mythic art’. Founded in 1987 it is directed by Terri Windling and Midori Snyder and features contributions from an international circle of mythic artists and scholars. While the scope goes beyond the realms of faerie the online Journal of Mythic Art contains many articles of interest to faerie lovers. Each quarterly issue explores a different theme in myth and folklore and it is well worth taking the time to delve into the extensive archives.

The Fairy Box is a Scottish based charity that exists to support ill children in hospital, their families and the medical and nursing staff involved in their care. The box in question is a themed gift box kept in the ward full of donated books, toys and games, so that parents, medical and nursing staff can choose a gift for a child that is undergoing a difficult time while in hospital.
The charity’s aim is provide a Fairy Box for every children’s ward in Scotland, and are looking for donations of new toys, books, games, CDs and DVDs suitable for children aged 2 – 12, not necessarily with a magical or fairy theme. They also welcome cash donations, or you could perhaps attend one of their fundraisers, which in the past has included an art exhibition and a tea party.
