Join Rebecca for a Christmas Brush Lettering workshop just in time to add a little magic to your cards and presents this year.  Brush Lettering is an on-trend calligraphy style created using brush pens and paintbrushes.

In this fun, easy to follow workshop Rebecca will show you the basic strokes needed to create beautiful brush lettering before introducing you to the letterforms for you to practice your new skill.  We will learn how to use brush pens and a range of paints and inks and experiment with different papers and card.

Once you have got to grips with the technique we’ll use our new skills to create some Christmas cards and gift tags you can share with your favourite people this Christmas. This workshop is suitable for complete beginners and aimed at ages 14 years and above.

We will be tucked away in the Edith Porter Room @ The Museum of Cambridge. The brilliant central locations means you can finish the workshop and wander into town easily for lunch and Christmas shopping.

Forming part of St John’s College, The Bridge of Sighs is one of Cambridge’s most famous landmarks. It shares little with its Venetian namesake, but this Gothic Revival style structure is a beauty in its own right, best admired by punt.
