FAQ’s

What is included?

A two hour workshop - you can take some time out and spend some time on your own, or come with friends and family to try your hand at a new skill. A beginners calligraphy kit is included for you to keep and take home as well as your final work. Festive drinks are also included.

But what is in the kit?

You will have a pen holder, nib, a jar of black ink, my own handmade gold ink, along with worksheets, practise paper and some luxury card, with envelopes and gift tags.

What will we do?

We will begin with an introduction to modern calligraphy techniques, some warm up strokes before practising the alphabet and then moving on to some Christmas words and styles so we can create our own special Christmas cards & gift tags. There will be full guidance throughout and I will be there to help you and answer any further questions you might have.

Will I receive a ticket?

I don’t send out paper tickets, you should receive an email confirmation for your order and then I will send you an email a day or two before the workshop just with some final details.

If you are purchasing a ticket as a present, please get in touch and I would be happy to send you a voucher that you can gift.

Can I buy more card and ink colours to continue my practise and make more at home?

Yes! I have lots of additional extras available to buy at each workshop, from extra practise paper and books, to my own handmade metallic inks as well as a variety of nibs, pen holders and brush pens.

But my handwriting is rubbish!

That doesn’t matter at all. I’ll tell you a secret - so is mine! This is all about slowing it down, taking it easy and going with the flow. It is easier than it looks, you will have fun and you will be so proud of what you achieve!

I’m left handed - does that matter?

Not at all, there are many left handed calligraphers!

Is food available?

Yes - Yalm is a food hall located in The Royal Arcade in Norwich City Centre. Why not make more of an occasion of it and get some food at Yalm first - if you haven’t been yet then now is the perfect chance for an exciting meal out followed by learning something new - a perfect day!

Can I buy the ticket for someone else?

Of course - just let me know their names and tick the gift option if you would like a handmade and personalised voucher.

I now can’t make it, can I have a refund?

Unfortunately workshops are non-refundable but I would be happy to transfer your date to a future workshop.

Can I arrange a private calligraphy workshop or event?

Most definitely - get in touch via the contact form or email and we can arrange this.
