Uppercase Modern Calligraphy for Beginners Workshop (Sept 7)

About the Event

Join us for our Modern Calligraphy workshop for beginners, where you will learn the art of hand lettering using a traditional pointed dip pen and ink with a contemporary approach.

Many people find Modern Calligraphy attractive to learn because it allows them to create beautiful, fun, and hand-crafted letters that are unique and personal. Modern Calligraphy is often characterized by its use of thick and thin lines, giving the letters a dynamic and expressive quality.

Enjoy complimentary snacks and beverages.
Space is limited, so be sure to register early.
