Calligraphy Class
Saturday, September 05

Fitzgerald & Shakespeare RoomsLearn the art of decorated versals with April Guin.
Decorated versals are large, ornate, hand-drawn capital letters used historically in medieval manuscripts to mark the beginning of a paragraph, chapter, or verse. These letters stand out from standard calligraphic text through their structural formation and elaborate decoration. Class instructor April Guin teaches regularly in the Birmingham and Atlanta areas.
This class is presented by the Birmingham Calligraphy Guild (BCG) and sponsored by the Hoover Public Library. Registration and supplies for your first class are free.
The BCG and HPL ask that you join the Guild for subsequent classes to allow more patrons the opportunity to attend. Annual dues are $25.
