​​Calligraphy for the Holidays Workshop
December 4th

If you have always wanted to learn calligraphy, the holiday season is a perfect time to get started. In this one-day workshop you can learn the basics and apply your new skills to holiday themed projects. The workshop will be run in two sessions. The morning session will be held from 10:30-12:00. There will be a break for lunch and the afternoon session will be from 1:00 – 2:30. The workshop is designed for the absolute beginner and will include mini-workbooks, a starter kit, and supplies.

During the morning session students will learn strokes, letters, and connectors with plenty of time to practice. By the end of the morning session workshop attendees will be writing words and sentences. The afternoon class will start with a short review and warm up followed by instructions for several optional projects. Workshop participants can practice and apply their new skills to make place cards, gift décor, or cards and envelopes. A mini-workbook will be provided with project instructions and students will be able to choose the project that interests them and complete it during the workshop with support from the instructor.

The cost for the workshop is $40 for the morning session or $60 for both sessions and includes all supplies. The class instructor will be Amanda Hermans.
