Program Description

Event Description

The ancient technique of East Asian brush calligraphy has been considered part art form and part meditation. In this basic presentation, you will learn how to grind ink, hold a brush, and apply basic brushstrokes, as well as how to respect the five treasures - brush, ink stick, ink stone, paper, and water. Plus, get a glimpse of ancient Chinese picture-writing and modern variants. Those wanting a more in-depth experience are welcome to bring their brush calligraphy kit.
