Event Overview

One of my favorite December traditions is walking down Oak Street with a warm drink, window shopping and enjoying all the lights sparkling in trees lining the street. While you're at it, why don't you stop in Athleta and take a calligraphy class with me? 


Join me for a Modern Calligraphy workshop for Beginners. We will start by learning now to put together a calligraphy pen, and then we'll dip it in ink and start writing! We'll start by going over some basic strokes, and you'll be surprised at how quickly those strokes turn into letters and words. Near the end of the class, we'll make a couple of personalized tags to adorn the gifts you're wrapping for your family and friends. Plus, you'll take home your calligraphy kit to keep practicing and making at home! As we learn, we'll munch on festive snacks courtesy of the team at Athleta. 


*Please note: Although all are welcome to come try their hand at calligraphy, some left-handers do find it more challenging. Feel free to send me a message if you have a question or concern! 


What you can expect from this experience:


  • 1 Pointed nib + nib holder (pen) to take home

  • 1 Bottle of black ink to take home

  • Practice sheets to learn basic strokes, letters, and words

  • A gift tag to decorate with your new skills

  • Refreshments

Minimum age

All ages welcome

    This is my second time taking one of Sam's classes. It was a lot of fun and a lot easier than I was expecting. She is great at teaching calligraphy and sharing all the tips and tricks she has learned along the way. I love hearing some of the history as well. Great location as well. Easy to get to and a fun atmosphere.
