An Introduction to the Gentle Art of Calligraphy

Dearest Gentle Reader, let's practice mindfulness with handwritten letters.



1.5 hours Class size 1 to 12 guests    

  $75 (Afterpay & PayPal Pay in 4 available)

Step into a quieter age where words were not merely written but composed with grace, intention, and a steady hand. In this refined and contemplative workshop, you shall be guided through the elegant craft of modern calligraphy, a practice as soothing as it is beautiful.
What you shall undertake:
Under careful instruction, you will acquaint yourself with the pointed pen, learning first the foundational strokes from which all letters are born. With patience and measured rhythm, these strokes shall give rise to delicate forms, and in time, to words of your own making.
What you shall learn:
  • The proper manner of holding and guiding the pen
  • The essential strokes that shape each letter
  • The formation of the lowercase hand
  • The harmony of spacing and flow
Why attend:
In an age of haste, calligraphy offers a rare and quiet pleasure. It invites one to slow the hand, still the mind, and find beauty in each deliberate stroke. You shall depart not only with a creation of your own but with a skill both timeless and enduring.
What you'll get
Your completed calligraphic work, along with the tools and knowledge to continue your studies beyond the workshop.
Knowledge required
This gathering welcomes all, particularly those new to the craft. No prior experience is required, only a willingness to learn with care and attention.
What to bring
Bring your presence and a readiness to immerse yourself in the practice.
