Good to Know

This class is for anyone who's never picked up a pen. We teach the basics, and our hope is you leave with ink flowing through your nib and the confidence to keep practicing. Tried it before? It's a great refresher with new supplies from our beginner kit.

Left-handed? You're very welcome. This class is designed with lefties in mind — we teach you to get ink flowing through your nib with confidence, whatever hand you use.

All students under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a ticketed adult to our classes.

Your Instructor

Hello fellow lettering lovers, my name is Rawan and I am based in the RTP area of North Carolina.  I'm a new calligrapher, however, I've always loved hand-lettering and experimenting with various fonts, even as a child. I also want to expand my love of calligraphy to different languages, such as Georgian and Arabic as they both have unique scripts and a long history in calligraphy. My other creative hobbies include cooking, baking, and painting. I especially love recreating Monet pieces for my family and friends! Looking forward to meeting you in class.
