Calligraphy & Lettering 101: Multiple Styles + Tools [Vancouver Workshop]

You’re in the right place if:

• You’re curious and secretly admire the calligraphy craze on Instagram. You’re inspired to stretch your creative muscles. You wonder if this could be your new form of self-expression.

• Or maybe you’re not confident in calling yourself creative, you feel a little dry, but you’re hungry for inspiration, for something new...a new creative outlet and a way to slow down your mind or heart.

• Or perhaps you’re a closet calligrapher, experimenting on your own at home through youtube videos or library books. You wonder if real-time learning with like minded pen geeks might accelerate your learning.

• Or maybe you’re searching for a fun and meaningful experience to share with your friends.

No matter where you are in your journey, these calligraphy workshops will refresh your heart and empower you with the creative confidence and tools to live an inspired and intentional life of impact.

This is your invitation to step away from the craziness of your daily life for a little creative space for relaxed fun, inspiration, and connection. Consider it treating yourself to a mini-retreat!

THIS IS PERFECT FOR YOU IF YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHERE TO START!

In a hyper-digitized super-speedy world, calligraphy and handlettering bring back a touch of personal and relaxation/reflection into your life and relationships.

In this introductory exploratory workshop:

• GET CLARITY: This session will guide you to the next steps on your calligraphy journey if you have no idea where to start, or just have some questions about what you could learn next. Learn more about and get an overview of the many different kinds of calligraphy and lettering to explore.

• GET CREATIVE: Try different writing instruments for yourself to get a taste of which you may want to explore in a more hands on workshop. Think of this as a 100 level college class that gives you a broad overview. Most calligraphy classes are like 300-400 level courses that dive deep into one writing instrument or specific lettering style.

• GET CONNECTED: Enjoy good conversation with those looking to create meaningful connections.

• SET INTENTIONS: Experience a taste of It Just Flows heart-centered calligraphy workshops in some mini coaching exercises to set your intention for the session or season ahead.
