Begin your exploration of traditional Blackletter calligraphy in this 3-hour, in-person workshop with professional calligrapher Aline Chan!
Also sometimes known as Fraktur or Old English, Blackletter is a style of broad edged calligraphy that can be found in a range of documents from old medieval manuscripts to vintage newspapers and modern certificates. It evokes a timeless sense of tradition, and presents many opportunities for creative expression.

The workshop will also include an introduction to ornamental versal—the decorative capital letter found at the beginning of a verse or section in medieval illuminated manuscripts.
