Oct 6-7, 2012 Major Workshop
Carrie Imai
The Bone Alphabet
October 6-7, 2012, 9 AM - 4:30 PM, Discovery School
The Workshop Committee is very excited to have Carrie Imai on her way back to San Antonio in the fall. Even though this may seem a long way off right now, please save the date and sign up in May. Carrie is a sweet, encouraging, talented calligrapher and instructor. She comes to us from the Los Angeles, CA, area, and she says, “I thought I was living good to have found my love of calligraphy, but I found my true passion when I saw the light go on in a student's eyes.”
Jill Adams will begin accepting sign up for this class at the May general meeting. Cost is $100 + $10 supply fee for bound handout book and experimental tool kit, practice paper, gum Arabic container, water pots and name plates, all provided by Carrie. Although we ask for your check early, and your check holds your space in the class, we will not deposit your check until after the class takes place, so feel free to date your check for October 1, 2012.
February 2013
Reggie Ezell -Year Long Workshop
Class Schedule: We will meet every other month, beginning in February, 2013. We realize that “life is what happens while you’re making other plans,” as John Lennon said, and emergencies do happen. We plan to meet on the off months, totally voluntarily, so that we can assist each other with homework, clarification of notes, etc., and so that anyone who misses a class due to life’s emergencies can be brought up to date by those who were present.
 The dates for our classes are:
 February 9-10
 April 13-14
 June 8-9
 August 10-11
 October 12-13
 December 7-8
Mar 9-10, 2013 Carl Rohrs Brush Lettering Workshop - March 9-10, 2013
Although the Reggie Ezell year-long class will be ongoing during 2013, the Workshop Committee feels it is imperative that we offer our usual major workshops during that year, so that we have study opportunities available for those who are not involved in the year long class. Thus we are very excited to have Carl Rohrs visiting San Antonio for the first time in 2013. Carl is a professional calligrapher and a fabulous instructor and will be teaching brush lettering. The class is for all levels and will take place March 9-10, 2013. Cost is yet to be determined.


The San Antonio Calligraphers Guild meets on the first Thursday of the month.
September through June, at 7:00 p.m. (building opens at 6:00 pm) in the Family Ministry Center of Christ Episcopal Church.  501 Belknap Place (2 blocks south of Woodlawn Ave).
Visitors are welcome and may attend two meetings without paying memberships dues.
