Looking to meet fellow calligraphy lovers in your local area? Join us for an evening of connection, conversation, and lettering!
This relaxed two-hour session is all about getting stuck into a fun calligraphy project while connecting with fellow lettering enthusiasts. Think of it as your creative catch-up - with ink!
£27.00
Who’s it for?
This meet-up is ideal for anyone with some calligraphy experience, maybe you’ve taken a beginner workshop or already enjoy using a brush or dip pen. It’s not suitable for complete beginners who haven’t yet learnt the basic strokes. Whether you’re a seasoned hobbyist or a small business owner looking to meet creative peers, you’ll find good company and plenty of inspiration.
What to expect
🎨 Work on a fun mini project with all materials provided (exact theme revealed closer to the date!!)
🖋️ A friendly, welcoming space to sit, chat, and relax.
💬 Time to connect with other creatives who get what it's like to run a lettering biz (hello, lonely laptop days).
✨ A little creative boost to spark ideas, friendships, and inspiration.
Each event around the UK follows the same relaxed format, but projects may vary slightly from venue to venue - perfect if you're planning to attend more than one!
We’ll keep things informal and welcoming, come as you are, chat as much or as little as you like, and enjoy being surrounded by people who get your love of lettering.

Some people come to make friends, others just want a peaceful space to create around other people who "get it”.
