Modern calligraphy, but make it fun!

About this Event

Ready to try something creative, a little rebellious, and way more fun than doom-scrolling your phone? Come hang out and learn the basics of modern calligraphy… but with a spicy twist.

This beginner-friendly class is designed for real humans (not perfect handwriting people) who want to learn how to create beautiful lettering, and maybe spell out a few choice words while you’re at it.

We’ll cover foundational strokes, letter connections, and simple techniques to help you feel confident using a calligraphy pen. Then we’ll put those skills to use on a project that’s a little less “live, laugh, love” and a little more… honest.

Whether this is your first time trying calligraphy or you’ve attempted it before and your letters came out looking slightly questionable, you’re in the right place.

Your class kit is included and yours to keep, so you can keep practicing (or start a slightly unhinged but beautiful new hobby).

Expect good vibes, lots of laughs, zero judgment, and a creative night out that absolutely does not take itself too seriously.

What to expect:
• Beginner-friendly instruction
• Step-by-step guidance throughout class
• All materials included
• A take-home calligraphy kit
• A fun, slightly inappropriate project
• Photo-worthy setup (yes, even your cuss words will look cute)
• A relaxed, welcoming atmosphere

No experience needed—just bring yourself and your favorite swear word energy.

To wrap things up, you’ll create your final project using one of the provided word guides: “spicy nice” (a slightly filtered version of profanity) or “unfiltered” (straight-up, no-holding-back profanity). Your project, your vibe.
