With an emphasis on ‘learning by doing’ and hands-on experimentation, a range of art materials will be provided for each session. If you have any favourite materials that you’re working with, we encourage you to bring those along to experiment with and share with others.
Whether you’re a practising lettering artist, graphic designer, or simply have a ‘thing’ for letters, we encourage you to come along for a fun night of lettering and learning with like-minded people.
A TYPE THING #7
We’re excited to have our very own Gerard Hindle hosting our seventh instalment of A Type Thing, presenting his take on the theme ‘Calligraphy’.
Gerard has a background in design, working as an Art Director in various studios and agencies across Melbourne. He has been practicing calligraphy for over 5 years and has participated in workshops from some of the most experienced calligraphers in the world. He is also a member of the Calligraphy Society of Victoria.
In this session, Gerard will be talking about his experiences and his journey on working to perfect his craft, as well as taking you through how to get started with foundational calligraphy. Whether you are a beginner or need to refresh your calligraphy skills, this will be perfect for you.
