About this Event

Learn the history and basics of Arabic script, including how to hold the pen, scaling, and beginner exercises to build precision. Explore creative dimensions like letter variations, stroke adjustments, and integration through live demonstrations. Perfect for beginners, this session blends tradition with creativity, giving you the skills to create your own calligraphic art. This session is being led by Omar Uddin, an Arabic calligraphy expert, at North York Central Library in Room 101.
