Healing Through Art: Modern Calligraphy for Beginners at Motivat Coffee in Oakland, CA

Join Sip & ScriptⓇ for Modern Calligraphy Fun!

Join us at Motivat Coffee in Oakland, CA for pretty lettering! Whether you’re a stationery nerd, DIY Bride-to-be, or just a crafty individual, you’ll be introduced to modern calligraphy with a pointed dip pen and ink in this workshop. We will cover all the basics and prepare you to add those unique lettered details to your snail mail, wedding paper goods, home decor, and more.

Healing Through Art: This class is a special collaboration with Hazel from Hazel Luna Design. An artist, creator, photographer, writer, and more, Hazel believes in the healing power of art and the value of romanticizing ordinary moments. She will set the tone for this class by leading us toward mindfulness so that we can engage deeply in this creative and healing art form. We’ll have special word guides and a project to continue your journey toward healing. Check out Hazel’s website here. Don’t miss this opportunity to engage more fully in calligraphy!

Class includes 1.5 hours of instruction and demonstration, our beginner’s calligraphy kit (two nibs, black ink pot, 2 letter guides, tracing paper, and straight pen holder), and all materials to write on. Everything is yours to keep at the end of the workshop!

Feel free to come early, grab your seat, and purchase coffee (coffee is available to purchase throughout the class, too!). Class will start promptly at 10:30 am! 

Class Expectations: Yes, lefties are welcome too! This class is encouraged for someone who has never taken a calligraphy class before. We teach the basics, and our expectation for you is to have ink flowing through your nib with enough confidence to be able to practice way beyond class. We love using tracing paper with our guides to help you build muscle memory and develop your own style!  If you have tried calligraphy out before, this class will be a great refresher and hopefully a chance to try some new supplies from our beginner kit that will re-introduce you to this lovely form of art!

A note on bringing guests 16 and under: We love to share this passion with kids. You are welcome to get a ticket for your child. We ask that a ticketed adult accompany anyone under the age of 16 at all times.
