Slow down and enjoy a creative afternoon learning modern dip pen calligraphy and making beautiful handmade cards and gift tags.

Join me at Gail's in Hove for a relaxed, welcoming workshop where you'll learn the art of dip pen calligraphy, explore beautiful lettering styles and create thoughtful pieces to keep or give to someone special.

Inspired by the season of thoughtful gestures and handmade gifts, we'll practise writing with a dip pen and ink before putting your new skills into practice with your own designs. Whether you'd love to make a personalised card, create something meaningful for someone you care about or simply enjoy a few hours of creativity, this workshop is a lovely opportunity to try something new.

I'll guide you through each step, from getting to grips with your pen and ink to practising the basic strokes and creating your own lettering. No previous experience is needed, so complete beginners are very welcome.

Come along with a friend or simply enjoy some creative time for yourself. You'll leave with new skills, handmade creations and hopefully a little inspiration to carry into the rest of your week.
