PRIVATE EVENT: Mom’s Surprise 60th hosted by Cynthia Battaglia

Join Sip & Script x Cynthia Battaglia of Cbx Design for an Afternoon of Learning Calligraphy!

You’re invited! Join me, Cynthia Battaglia, at my backyard in Westwood, NY for a beautiful outdoor Summer workshop of fun and pretty lettering for beginners! We’re also celebrating my Mom’s 60th Birthday but it’s a surprise to her! Whether you’re a stationery nerd, DIY Bride-to-be, or just a crafty individual, in this workshop you’ll be learning an introduction to modern calligraphy with a pointed dip pen and ink. We will cover all the basics and get you ready to add those special lettered details to your girls nights, special dinners & cards. The perfect crafty afternoon sipping on summer drinks and nibbling on delicious bites.

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! In addition, your instructor, Love Jenna Calligraphy, will write a custom piece for each person to take home. It could be your kids’ names, pet names, or a favorite quote. It’s a treat to watch her write! You can see her work at @lovejennacalligraphy. Her clients include Martha Stewart, Oprah, Lewis Miller Floral Design, Darcy Miller and Privateer Rum.

Feel free to come a little early, grab your seat and a drink and food. Class will start promptly at 12:30 PM!  

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 as long as you are comfortable with people around them having a drink or two.
