  SPRING FLING - IN PERSON

  
  

   

  Sponsored by the Inland Empire
  Saturday, April 26 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.

  Complimentary Outreach Event - Open to Members and Visitors

  About this event:

  Copperplate is a popular lettering style. In this introductory session, we’ll write in that style, using a brush marker. Our letters will be a little less formal than traditional copperplate.  This three hour session will be a quick introduction to copperplate and the brush pen, or a refresher for those who already know the hand and this tool. 

  Presenter: Kristi Darwick

  Supplies included

  Coffee & Tea will be provided and we'll take a short break. Feel free to bring a snack to share.

  Questions? Contact: Adela at IEWorkshopsTeam@societyforcalligraphy.org

  Space for 15 participants only.

  NO audio or video recording of any program, meeting, workshop or other SfC function permitted consent of both guest artist and a representative of the Board of Governors. *** You must ask permission of the artist/instructor to photograph any copyrighted materials, including demos.
