Meeting: Calligraphy Day 2026

When:
Description:

Planning Meeting
Join in to help plan next year's programs, workshops and more. We want your ideas for a theme, programs, workshops, courses and words of the month. Do you have a subject that inspires you (for example nature, the seasons, history, fantasy, world peace). Is there a technique you want to see demonstrated, or a presentation you would like to see, at one of the monthly programs? Are there scripts that you want to learn through a course or workshop (for example pointed pen, something traditional, or contemporary)? Bring your ideas and share your thoughts to help decide what inspiring things we might do next year. We want to hear from both new and longtime members about what excites you - every idea is a good one!

Calligra-flea-market
Is it time to de-clutter your studio and pass on your unwanted tools and materials? You can donate items to the CSO main table – contact Greg at greg.hutton@sympatico.ca; or sell at your own stall – to reserve a table, contact Doris at wionzek@ncf.ca

Cards & Envelopes with Joan Massey & Susan Pinard
We will explore decorating envelopes. I have one book full of copies of envelopes sent to a lady, published by the Society of Scribes in New York. I will take some paper to the session, and will have some copies of the panels I'll use. We will try out designs on paper first, before applying them to the envelope. If you want to participate, you'll need to have these things: paper, pencil, eraser, ruler, coloured pencils, markers, ink, pens and envelopes. I can provide some envelopes too. It should be fun to play!

Gallery Challenge Words:

WORD OF THE MONTH – O CANADA!
Write any or all of the 3 words in your choice of style, colour and design, and bring it in for the gallery: Nigig (otter, loutre).

Location:

The meeting will be in the Recital Room (not our usual room for workshops).
