Calligraphy Classes & Events

Thinking about joining us for the Flourish Festival of Letters and Art, but wondering if you’ll fit in? 🤔✨

The short answer: Absolutely.

Flourish was designed to be a home for the entire lettering community. Whether you are picking up a dip pen for the very first time or you’ve been a seasoned professional for decades, there is a place for you here.

Our festival is for: 
✨ Beginners looking for a solid foundation and a chance to learn the right way from the start.
✨ Intermediate & Advanced Artists ready to break old habits, explore complex new styles, and find fresh inspiration.
✨ Creative Souls who want to step away from the screen and reconnect with the tactile, meditative art of calligraphy.
✨ Community Seekers who want to meet their "ink friends" in person and share their passion with people who truly get it.

No matter where you are on your creative journey, you belong at Flourish.

🗓 October 22 – 25, 2026
