About this Event
Have you always wanted to know more about calligraphy, but perhaps you're not quite ready for the commitment of signing up for a multi-week class?
Or maybe you're interested in getting started with calligraphy but not sure what class to take?
Perhaps you have admired those old illuminated manuscripts and wondered how they were created?
Then this workshop, which could have been called “Art Appreciation for Calligraphy,” is perfect for you!
This workshop will give you a taste of what is involved in the practice and study of calligraphy.
While we will not be learning to write in a calligraphy style due to time constraints, you WILL get:
- A short demonstration/display of a variety of different calligraphy styles, techniques, and tools
- A brief history of calligraphy
- The opportunity to follow step-by-step instructions and a demonstration to create your VERY OWN fancy decorated letter during the class!
This class is part of the 2023 .
