Wine Wednesday & Modern Calligraphy for Beginners @ The Gwen Hotel

July 10 @ 6:00 pm-7:30 pm CDT

$70.00

Join Sip & ScriptⓇ for Modern Calligraphy Fun!

Join us at The Gwen Hotel’s Restaurant “Private Affairs” in Chicago, IL 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! The perfect crafty night out!

It will also be Wine Wednesday at The Gwen, so take advantage of wine specials, handcrafted cocktails and light bites that are available to order!

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 any food or drinks. It will be Wine Wednesday at The Gwen, so take advantage of wine specials, handcrafted cocktails and light bites that are available to order! Class will start promptly at 6 PM

The Private Affairs restaurant is located on the 5th floor across from Upstairs at The Gwen.

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 if you are comfortable with people around them having a drink or two. We ask that a ticketed adult accompany anyone under the age of 16 at all times.
