Locally Lettered: Summer Brush Calligraphy w/ hilary
Ready to swap the traditional nib for a brush pen? Come get creative with us!
Swap the traditional nib for a brush pen & learn a different way to make beautiful letters. Learn hand-lettering & take home your own kit. Join us at St. Vrain Cidery for a relaxed evening of modern brush calligraphy, local sips, and hands-on learning.
If you’ve ever wanted to learn modern lettering but felt intimidated by traditional dip pens, brush calligraphy is the perfect place to start. Think of it more as drawing and hand-lettering than rigid, traditional script. It uses a much simpler, more approachable tool while delivering the same stunning, expressive results. If you’ve taken a calligraphy class with me before, this is the ultimate next step. If you’re a complete beginner who wants a creative outlet with a basic tool you can use anywhere, you’re in the right place!
What we’ll cover:
The fundamental pressure techniques unique to brush pens
Basic strokes and alphabet construction
Connecting letters into fluid words and phrases
Stylizing your hand-lettering for everyday projects
Your Ticket Includes:
Two hours of live, expert instruction breaking down every stroke.
A custom brush calligraphy kit packed with my favorite curated tools and practice worksheets to take home.
A fun, creative night out with local makers in a gorgeous industrial-chic setting.
No matter your experience level, there is a seat at the table for you. Space is limited to ensure plenty of one-on-one guidance, so grab a friend, claim your spot, and let's get lettering!
