Good penmanship is not required - only a desire to enjoy oneself and to learn some of the basics of the art of calligraphy.
Supplies: We will provide all supplies including: paper for practice and calligraphy pens for you to take home. Students will need to bring a small quotation or an inspirational phrase to use for your project.
