An Enclave was a Star Wars group of fans that was less a fan club than a social and philosophical gathering.

The term was coined by Maggie Nowakowska in her ThousandWorlds Star Wars stories.

One early Enclave founder wrote:

Well, It's a place and a group of people. If you can bear with the esoterics a moment, let me say that it is a focal vortex of the Force and that contact with the Force is constant. Each memeber determines how active he or she wishes to be; each member is responsible for his or her own life and what he/ she does with it. But we set no rigid rules. Our Creed is the statement of belief in what we do, and as long as a person does not violate the Creed, it is up to them how they handle their life. We consider ourselves a philosophical brotherhood (for want of better terms), but if a person chooses to consider the Jedi Way (as we have defined it in the Creed) as a religion he is free to do so.
