Why not give yourself some precious me-time to learn or perfect the wonderful skill of modern calligraphy? This class also makes a fabulous gift for creative friends and relatives.

Calligraphy is the art of writing beautifully, but many also use it as a way of switching off, relaxing and relieving stress.

Included with the workshop, you'll be given everything you need to start your calligraphy journey. We'll also give you wine, tea, coffee or juice!

Each materials kit, created by expert calligrapher Stacy Oakley, includes a quality nib, oblique nib holder, pot of sumi ink, comprehensive workbook, premium practice pad, laminated guidelines and alphabet exemplar and a personalised notecard.

During the session, held in the lovely Spring Grove pub in Kingston, Stacy will guide you through all the basics of calligraphy and introduce each letter of the alphabet step by step. Participant numbers will be kept low to make sure that you have plenty of opportunities for help and to ask any questions you may have.
