Calligraphy Workshop ‘Note to Yourself’ with Dina Ruzha

Join Dina Ruzha, local illustrator, calligrapher and lettering artist at the Carriage Barn for a morning of beauty, elegance and creativity!

Note to Myself is a 3 hour calligraphy workshop designed for adults who want to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and create something meaningful with their own hands. Using a pointed pen, participants will learn the basics of modern calligraphy while writing a personal “note to self” — a short phrase or wish such as “Be happy” or “Stay calm and peaceful.”

What We’ll Cover in this Workshop:

– Begin with an introduction to the pointed pen — how to hold it and control ink flow.
– Practice simple exercises to get comfortable with strokes and rhythm.
– Progress to writing words and short affirmations.
– Create a personal hand-lettered card or bookmark with a chosen phrase — a keepsake to carry, gift, or place in a favorite book.

In today’s busy world, this workshop offers more than just learning calligraphy. It’s an opportunity to put the phone aside, engage the hands and mind in a mindful practice, and enjoy the meditative calm of slow writing. Participants leave not only with a beautiful handmade piece, but also with the experience of quality time spent for themselves.

Every participant will take home a hand-lettered “note to self” — a unique reminder of calm, positivity, and the joy of creating with one’s own hands.
