Beginners Creative Calligraphy workshop in Battersea

Whether you’re looking for a new challenge or have a wedding or event coming up you would like to create your own stationery for, a Betty Etiquette creative workshop is just for you.

Covering skills including contemporary calligraphy, stationery design and paper craft, our workshops are accessible and fun introductions sessions that encourage you to find your own creative style.

Workshops are taught by Betty Etiquette’s Creative Director Rebecca in small groups so you get the chance to have one-on-one support and you learn your new craft.

Moving away from the formal traditional calligraphy you'd find on the bottom of a certificate, this workshop will give you the skills to create your own decorative writing style. Popular in contemporary design, wedding stationery and advertising trends, hand lettering remains a unique personal expression in a world full of screens.

In this introductory session you'll use a dip ink pen, learning basic upper and lower case letter formation and then using your new skills, create a personal project to take away with you.

The session will run for 3hs with a 15 min break. Refreshments and sweet treats will be provided to keep your creative juices flowing.
