About this Event
If you are looking for a new activity for your family or friends why not come along to this workshop!
Originally from Taiwan, my wife Wen-Hsi will share her Taiwanese cultural identity, focusing on the traditional "Eight Principles of Yong" in Creative calligraphy.
During this workshop you have the opportunity to use specially prepared handmade Red Paper, Chinese Brushes, and Black Ink to learn how to write traditional Chinese characters. These characters symbolise health, wealth, good luck, and the joy of welcoming the future.
Relax, enjoy the moment by picking up a paint brush to create your unique calligraphy. Experience creativity, connect with like-minded individuals and a lean a new skill.
At the end of this workshop you will have created traditional calligraphy characters using traditional ink and brush on traditional red paper that you can share with your family and display in the home!
You will be guided by artists Martin and Wen-Hsi Harman. We’ll be there to support you throughout the session. You can view more of our work and experience here and here.
We wish everyone the very best in the Year of the Snake!
