Calligraphy Classes
Pointed Pen Calligraphy with Bill Kemp
Bill Kemp teaches one- and two-day pointed pen calligraphy workshops at Pen and Pad, 8236 Menual NE, Albuquerque (located in the Hoffmantown Shopping Center on the corner of Wyoming and Menual). Each class comes with a workbook, designed to break down each script for the students to take with them after the class to study from.
Saturday, June 11: Introduction to Pointed Pen ($150)
Sunday, June 12: Pointed Pen Uncial ($150.00)
The classes are from 9am – 5pm. There are only 9 students, so that provides more one-on-one instruction during the class. For more information, contact Pen and Pad at (505) 293-1144. Visit Bill's website.
