2014 February Meeting

The February meeting will be held at the East Bank Regional Library on February 8th.

Elegant Copperplate

Everyone enjoys the elegance of Copperplate.  Please join us as one of our talented members, Cathie Farrish, demonstrates the basics of the Copperplate script.  Copperplate is one of the most requested hands in the calligrapher’s repertoire.  This demonstration will be an excellent preparation for the upcoming workshop with Kathy Milici.  All skill levels are welcome.
