Meetings
Members and guests of Escribiente meet the first Wednesday of the month at 6:30pm. (No meetings are held in January, July and December.)
We feature an informative program for all levels of calligraphy at each meeting, including speakers, hands on projects, social time to meet other calligraphers, and generally a good learning atmosphere. Everyone with an interest in creating beautiful letters is welcome!
Upcoming Meetings
Meet and mingle with local Escribiente calligraphers at our free monthly meetings. Guests welcome. Please note that these programs may be subject to change, but they will give you something to look forward to and see how hard our program directors are working to bring you exciting and informational programs!

Here’s What I’m Working On – Now I Need Some Help!
This is exciting! If you have a collection of calligraphic items that you collect, bring them in so we can all see them. Tables will be set up for your display of any vintage treasures as they relate to calligraphy. Some suggestions: Nibs, nib holders, pens, ink wells, ink bottles, handwritten pages/envelopes, postcards, greeting cards, blotters, advertising blotter papers, lap desks, advertisements, correspondence chests, items that you find interesting and/or curious, instruction books, journals, diaries. Also, if you have anything in the works that you are stuck on, bring it in and you can get a multitude of help and ideas!
