Learn the Art of Beautiful Writing

Join professional calligrapher and artist Peter Lloyd for an introduction to the world of calligraphy.

The workshop is designed as an introduction to the fascinating and relaxing world of calligraphy. It is also regarded as a mindfulness activity supporting wellbeing.
