Engrave & Earn: Master the Art of Lux Hand Engraving for Beginners

Join us for Engrave & Earn: Master the Art of Lux Hand Engraving for Beginners at 15430 New Hampshire Ave on January 31, 2026 at 10:30 AM (Eastern Time).

The first step toward building a high-ticket personalization business.

Are you a calligrapher looking to expand your horizons? Live event engraving is one of the most profitable skills in the luxury retail and brand activation market, but it isn’t a skill you master in an afternoon. It is a craft that requires precision, safety, and—most importantly—dedicated practice.

Engrave & Earn is designed to be your professional launchpad. On January 31st, we are stripping away the mystery of the drill and providing you with the technical foundation and business roadmap you need to start your journey as a live event engraving artist.

Let’s be honest: You cannot become a master hand engraver in three hours. Anyone who tells you otherwise isn't being truthful.

Expertise comes from hours of "drill-to-glass" time and a deep understanding of the industry. However, every expert started with a single step. This workshop is that step. We provide the safe environment, the professional gear, and the industry blueprint so you can begin your practice with total confidence.

• Hands-on Instruction: Personalized coaching in an intimate 10-student setting.
• Technical Foundation: Learn the ergonomics and safety of the Yokefellow Cordless System. We’ll cover how to hold the drill, control the RPMs, and manage the "skate" of the burr on glass.
• Surface Basics: Learn how to layout the design and apply metallic color-fills for a design that pops.
• The Business Blueprint: I’ll hand you the roadmap for the 2026 Live Event Calligraphy Artist season. You’ll leave knowing exactly how to pitch your services to brands and how to price your time, using industry standards.

Because mastery takes time, your tuition includes more than just your seat in Silver Spring. You are joining an ecosystem designed to support your practice:

1. Immediate Engrave and Earn Inner Circle Access: Join our private community for 15 days to learn tips & tricks, event opportunities, industry trends, where to purchase resources and connect and learn from me and fellow artists.
2. Post-Course Office Hour (Feb 10): A live Q&A session to troubleshoot the questions that only arise after you’ve had a week of home practice.

• When: Saturday, January 31, 2026 | 10:30 AM – 1:30 PM
• Where: 15430 New Hampshire Ave, Silver Spring, MD 20905
