Village Calligraphy Workshop Recap

Once again I had the pleasure of teaching at Village in Sayville. This time I was thrilled to share the knowledge of calligraphy with an intimate group on a Thursday evening. We had candles lit, chocolates near, and the sound of our dip pens moving across parchment. It was everything I dreamed of. Years ago I started my business teaching calligraphy through the north east. I traveled and hosted workshops all over. I taught in my own studios on Long Island, and lettered many items for weddings. The last time I taught was masks on in the pandemic, and this was such a wonderful way to get back into teaching an art form that is so near and dear to me.

I was so proud of everyone’s progress! Left handed or right handed, some experience or no experience - everyone left that evening with a better understanding of how to use the tools, and create lovely letters.
