The Workshop
Your tutor, Jane, is looking forward to meeting you and says: “Join me on this afternoon ‘Have a go Modern Calligraphy workshop’.
All equipment is provided for you to be able to learn how to hold & use the pen, nib and work with metallic paints. Have a practise with hand out example sheets and then use your new found skills to create a personalised wreath sample that you can take home!
I have taught all types of calligraphy & find that “Modern Calligraphy” is wonderful and “user friendly” in comparison to the classic scripts. It is perfect for both left and right handed people, so no excuses lefties!!
I only work with the products that I know work well for learning calligraphy & will bring products for you to purchase on the day, if you wish, for continuing your new skills at home!”
NB: If any of you want to bring what calligraphy items you already have, Jane is happy to see if they are usable for this class or advise their best use.
What is the cost?
£36 + 80p card fee This includes use of all the materials needed to create your beautiful letters and refreshments (hot drinks and handmade biscuits) during the afternoon.
How many places are available?
To ensure the quality of your personal experience, the group size is limited to 10.
What are the timings?
This is a relaxed afternoon running from 1.30pm to 4pm.
Our purple front door will be open from 1pm so we can welcome you in, you can get to meet Jane and your fellow crafters and grab a cuppa before you start.
What skills are needed?
No experience is necessary. You will need a steady hand and a consistent grip, as with handwriting.
