A RELAXING CREATIVE SPACE
Cotswolds Calligraphy workshops are a relaxing and creative space for attendees.
Calligraphy, for me, is a slow and steady process. I find when putting the nib to paper, my mind quietens. This workshop will reflect the calmness that calligraphy can bring.
During workshops, attendees go through the worksheets at their own pace.
PRIVATE WORKSHOPS
If you're thinking of a creative workshop for a corporate event, hen/stag do, birthday celebrations, then a private workshop for you and your friends/family/colleagues might be what you're looking for.
One-to-one private workshops are also available if you are interested in receiving focused calligraphy tuition, guidance and feedback.
