Modern Calligraphy Workshop
Modern Calligraphy Workshop for the New and Curious with Alice Gabb
Available spots
Service Description
Modern Calligraphy Workshop with Alice Gabb This is a beginners workshop starting from scratch with a little introduction to good technique and some nib knowledge. We'll then go straight into some practice exercises, moving on to letter forms, and by the end of the lesson you will be connecting letters in Alice's signature calligraphy script. There will be supplies available to purchase after the class. Places are limited at 8 guests per class so this is a small and intimate class, perfect for learning so I can offer plenty of guidance. No experience necessary. Left-handers very welcome! ---- Alice is a queer Lettering Artist and Banner Maker based in Hackney, East London. After graduating from Bath Spa University in 2009 with a Visual Communications degree (Graphic Design and Illustration) specialising in bookbinding, printmaking and letterpress, she began to sell her hand-printed fine stationery at the legendary Broadway Market in East London. Running themes throughout her career have been continually celebrating the tactility of old printing techniques and lettering, and more recently the language of protest and resistance. Originally a self-taught Modern Calligrapher in 2014, Alice has since done courses with Susanne Cunningham, Paul Antonio and CityLit, and now teaches workshops across London. Alice’s involvement in banner making has since led her to be involved in many campaigns, and she is very happy to support and collaborate on banners with groups that align with her politics. ----- 10:30am - 1:00 pm Saturday 1st March 2025 Bus Stop Studios 53 London Road St Leonards on Sea TN37 6AY
