May 21, 2026

6:30-8:30

CWI, 1360 South Eagle Flight Way

Pintail RM 1302

So many amazing inks, beautiful paper,and different nibs!

We will have tables set up to explore and test many calligraphy supplies. Broad-edge, pointed pen, brush-letter, and other tools like folded pens and natural reeds for you to experiment with.  

We have many new members.  Welcome!  This is the perfect meeting for you.  Beginners can get advice and information from more experienced calligraphers. 

More experienced calligraphers can experiment with different inks and paper. Most importantly, everyone will be with a group of people who like to discuss the ins-and-outs of calligraphy and lettering!  

We will also have a brief description on how the digital program Procreate can support your calligraphy.  If you have an iPad, bring it along.  

And, finally, we will have our yearly Inkspots Board Elections.

Hope to see you all at our final meeting

before we break for the summer!
