Virtual Festive Calligraphy

FAQs

1. What can I expect from Virtual Festive Calligraphy?

A fun, informative, and relaxing online workshop! A charming and charismatic host will guide participants as they create decorative hand-written lettering using brush pens and water-based ink. Participants will learn how to apply pressure to get perfect strokes as they write the entire alphabet and connect letters. As part of the festive theme, guests will learn how to use calligraphy to decorate gift tags, wrapping paper, and Christmas cards with special messages and holiday greetings.

2. How does it work? What is the setup?

Clients are asked to send invitations to guests with access details for their chosen video conferencing platform in advance. Once guests have joined the video call, let's say on Zoom, our wonderful host will introduce themselves and outline what the workshop will entail before they begin.

Our host is on hand to guide guests, answer any questions, and encourage them as they practice the art of calligraphy. This is a live experience streamed using professional audio-visual equipment, including two cameras to provide a bird's eye view and a frontal view. Our host is accompanied by a behind-the-scenes technician who is there to support.

3. What do guests need to take part?

Beautifully presented calligraphy kits containing everything guests need will be mailed in advance. Kits include worksheets with templates, nibs, and ink.

4. Can the online calligraphy class be customized to other themes? 

Absolutely! Our Virtual Festive Calligraphy workshop is perfect for celebrating the holidays, but our instructors can also tailor the content to fit other themes and occasions, including Halloween and Valentine's Day.

5. What are the benefits of a virtual calligraphy workshop?

Calligraphy is an engaging yet calming activity, perfect for practicing mindfulness! The skills learned in this workshop can be used long after the online session is over, and guests can continue to practice the art in their own time.
