Calligraphy is the art of beautiful writing and for 30 years the Society of Scribes has offered a wide range of classes and workshops teaching many different styles of writing -- with broad-edged and pointed pens, brushes and markers. We are fortunate in being able to attract and bring leading calligraphers from all over the world to offer weekend workshops; we also are blessed with local talent to inspire and teach beginning and intermediate students. If you want to learn these hands or strengthen your abilities, consider taking a class!
Weekend Classes and Workshops. SoS offers classes for beginners wishing to learn the fundamentals of broad pen or pointed pen. A wide variety of workshops are offered to build on those basic pen skills, learn new techniques or to expand your repertoire of calligraphy-related skills.
We have 2 ‘seasons’---Fall, from September through December and Winter-Spring, from February through late May or early June. We do not offer classes during the summer months.
