Presented as part of our London Craft Week programme at the Geffrye Museum of the Home. A fun afternoon exploring the various ways letters can be made with flexible 'pointed pen' nibs and the broad-edged calligraphy pen, led by Lettering Arts Trust artist Mark Brooks. The workshop will analyse historic hand-written letterforms and apply these principles to a modern day aesthetic, experimenting with expressive, less structured forms and also giving your own handwriting a new dynamic quality.

No previous experience necessary. All pens, inks and materials provided. Tickets cost £20 - £24 and are available here: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/free-form-calligraphy-workshop-tickets-60343404748
