Copperplate script (English cursive) delights with the elegance and legibility of its slanted letters. Once a staple in school penmanship, today it becomes a fascinating journey into the world of calligraphy and beautiful style. With nostalgia, we look at the correspondence and notes of our grandparents. Especially for you, we have created an opportunity to go back in time and discover the secrets of the script that for years shaped the character and style of past generations. What will the classes look like? Calligraphy classes at Nice Letter Studio are not just about learning a particular script, but also: - basic tools: which to choose, what they are for, how to use them, - essential writing media: ink or paint, or maybe gold? - paper: which one doesn't let ink bleed, - how to practice at home to avoid reinforcing mistakes, - letters: exercises, lowercase alphabet, first words, capital letters, - a finished work ready for framing! ✨ WHEN? 10 meetings on Tuesday afternoons: 18:00-20:00 october: 7, 14, 21, 28 november: 4, 18, 25, december: 2, 9, 16 👥 FOR WHOM? - for beginners looking for a new passion, a favorite style, - besides substantive value, the workshops are also for those tired of staying only at home and at work, - for those seeking a moment of respite and relaxation in an atmospheric studio, in the company of people sharing the same passion, - for those who want to enter the world of handicrafts or art, but lack the courage. We invite everyone over 16 years old. 📝 WHAT DO YOU NEED? What do you need for the classes? You don't need any materials! Everything is available in our studio.

Wojciech Malinowski @callimetria Wojtek is a mathematics graduate from Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań. He signed up for his first calligraphy course in 2019, starting with Gothic script. That one meeting with calligraphy was enough to awaken a great passion in him. Since then, he has been constantly developing his skills, training under the guidance of many calligraphers. Letters have become an important part of his life. It may be surprising that a mathematician dealing with data analysis on a daily basis practices art. It is precisely his mathematical education that allows him to take an analytical look and deeply understand the geometry of letters. His skills include broad nib, brush, and pointed nib. He fell completely in love with the latter, immersing himself in the shapes of English cursive. 📲 Registration via the website
