Introductory modern calligraphy workshop with a pointed dip pen and ink, featuring seasonal pumpkin lettering.
Sip & Script is hosting a modern calligraphy workshop at the Bakery Square Conservatory on Sunday, October 25, from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM. It's an introductory class, so you don't need any prior experience to jump in.
The session focuses on modern calligraphy using a pointed dip pen and ink—the kind of tools that give you those thick and thin strokes calligraphy is known for. The seasonal twist is pumpkin lettering, so you'll be practicing your letters with a fall theme in mind. It's a good way to get a handle on the basics of dip pen work while making something that fits the time of year.
Sip & Script describes the workshop as being for stationery nerds, DIY brides-to-be, and crafty individuals. If you've spent any time scrolling through calligraphy videos and wondered how to actually start, this is a low-stakes way to do it. You'll spend the morning working through the fundamentals of the pointed pen, with the pumpkin theme as your guide.
