The Modern Calligraphy Co.'s Full Day calligraphy workshop will introduce you to modern calligraphy, focussing on how to create elegant stationery, table settings and signage perfect for parties and events.
Hand lettering and calligraphy elevates any special event. Adding this aesthetic element sets the tone for your guests, as well as being informative and helping the flow of your day.
In this relaxed and inspiring workshop, you will begin by discovering how to use calligraphy nibs, while comparing different modern calligraphy styles. Your tutor will demonstrate and give you lots of tips on how to position your calligraphy, including adding simple flourishes to letters. In the afternoon you will discover how to create faux calligraphy. This way of working allows you to scale up your calligraphy so that you can create larger signage and table decorations and work on other surfaces.
Held at the stunning Grade II listed country house of Findon Place, nestled in the South Downs, you will make new friends and emerge empowered and confident to start planning the lettering for your special event.
With the skills you'll acquire during this 6 hour workshop, you'll be able to use your own personal style across all your wedding decor items, from your invites to signage and table plans. Even if you have no plans to throw a celebration anytime soon, attending a creative workshop like this is a hugely relaxing and rewarding experience.
Maisie Minett, from The Modern Calligraphy Co. will guide you through the skills required to use calligraphy at different scales.
