I had a great time in this Modern Calligraphy course. Margaret Fu was patient and informative, giving everyone individual attention and assistance. The class was easy-going and went by fast. We left with practice materials, useful tips, ink, a nib, and a nib holder. I would definitely recommend this class to others.

Most of the workshop was self-guided. I was hoping there would be a framed finished piece...

The teacher was very friendly and knowledgable, and made it look so easy! But she was helpful and really broke it down step by step. I would even take this class again!
