Grafia kouluttaa: Modern Calligraphy Workshop

For members

Modern Calligraphy Workshop 6.5.2026, 16.00-19.00

FULLY BOOKED!

Sign up in Grafia’s online store starting Tuesday March 10, 2026, at 10 am. (Requires member login.)

Join the Modern Calligraphy Workshop where we take a modern approach to the ancient art of calligraphy. No previous lettering experience is required, as the workshop will guide you through the basics of modern calligraphy step-by-step. By the end of the class, you will have learned the strokes, techniques and letterforms of modern calligraphy, using traditional tools like a pointed nib and ink. You will also put your new skills to practice and create your first ever modern calligraphy piece. This workshop is suitable for both left and right-handed calligraphers. 

Workshop is hosted by Aini Mäensivu, a creative entrepreneur and calligraphy teacher who has introduced over 2000 students to the art of modern calligraphy. The small group size allows for plenty of personal guidance as you learn a new skill in a safe, supportive and enthusiastic atmosphere. 

Workshop is available for Grafia members only. The course language is English and spots are limited to the first 10 sign-ups. Please log in to the member portal to register.


Note! Members traveling from outside of the Helsinki metropolitan area to attend the workshop qualify for travel aid (max. 120 €), according to the least expensive public transportation method. Please note that this does not include HSL tickets. Get in touch with Grafia’s office beforehand: grafia@grafia.fi.
