Step into a quieter age, where words were not merely written but composed with grace, intention, and a steady hand.
In this beginner-friendly calligraphy workshop in Melbourne, you’ll discover the timeless art of beautiful lettering in a relaxed and supportive environment. Guided through three distinctive calligraphy styles: Gothic, Cursive, and Modern. You’ll learn the foundations of each using traditional and contemporary tools, while enjoying the quiet pleasure of creating by hand.
Whether you’re picking up a pen for the first time or simply seeking a mindful creative escape, this workshop warmly welcomes complete beginners.
Your Instruction Shall Include:
  • Gothic Calligraphy using a traditional calligraphy pen, inspired by medieval manuscripts.
  • Cursive Calligraphy using a felt tip pen, creating elegant, flowing handwriting for cards, journals and everyday lettering.
  • Modern Calligraphy using a brush pen, exploring expressive strokes and contemporary lettering techniques.
You will also learn:
  • The proper manner of holding and guiding each pen
  • The essential strokes that form every letter
  • Simple techniques to continue practising at home

Welcome to Artemy, where art, wellness and mindful making come together.
I'm Suzanna—a designer, maker and mum of two with a background in interior architecture and design. Some of you may know me as the former co-founder of TL Studio natural skincare, where I designed and facilitated workshops for adults, children, schools, community events and corporate clients, including collaborations with Canva, Victoria's Secret, ICOM and the Melbourne Wedding Expo.
Inspired by the spirit of Artemis—a symbol of creativity, nature and protection—Artemy grew from my love of natural materials and creating by hand.
Today, I offer thoughtfully curated workshops for adults, children, private groups and community organisations. From natural perfume blending to creative making experiences, every workshop is designed to help you slow down, reconnect with your creativity and enjoy meaningful time together.
You'll leave not only with something beautiful you've made by hand, but with a sense of calm, connection and quiet joy. Perfect for anyone looking to reconnect with creativity, enjoy mindful making, and share a meaningful experience.
Create beautifully. Connect meaningfully.
