Handlettering Course for Adults

We are looking for motivated adults for a beginners' course in handlettering!

In order to get a feel for the letters, each person first chooses a writing template and practices the alphabet with large and small handlettering letters. Then you can choose a three-liner and a suitable format. In the following, the individual words are rehearsed with the previously practised letters. The practised words are then calligraphed and decorated on colourful folding cards.

After the course on our sunny terrace, you are welcome to take a tour of our museum, enjoy some refreshments or browse through our paper library. (Price not included)
