Creative making: Modern calligraphy

This relaxing workshop will cover the basics of using a pointed pen and ink for calligraphy.  

You’ll learn how to write a modern alphabet, connect letters to make words, and some simple but effective decorative designs which we’ll use to make a spring themed card. 

All materials and tea and coffee will be provided.
