MARCH PROGRAM

Creating weathergrams is always a favorite activity for calligraphy guilds to do, especially during the Spring. Some Guilds do a Christmas version as well.

For those who are new to weathergrams and for those who haven’t done them in awhile, Chris Hackenbrack will show you how to combine the love of calligraphy with the love of nature. We will talk about their history, and we will make one for ourselves.

Bring your favorite lettering utensil, markers, brush pens, nib and ink, whatever you are most comfortable with. While an Italic lettering style is traditional, you can make your weathergram using your own personal preference of lettering style. It is best if the ink is waterproof, and tradition is for the ink to be black, red, or white, but again, we will be flexible and creative here.

Hope to see you there!
