Hamilton Wood Type and Printing Museum Wayzgoose Workshops

I was invited to lead two calligraphy workshops and two interactive sessions at the Hamilton Wood Type and Printing Museum in Two Rivers, Wisconsin in November 2016.

This is a fantastic museum in a great location with a very nice leadership team. It is a treasure trove of cool stuff!

For the two calligraphy workshops, we did Italic minuscules.

The interactive sessions were open to everyone at the Wayzgoose, and a bunch of enthusiastic volunteers shared messages of inspiration for children that were later displayed at the Two Rivers Library.

This is very good advice for everyone to follow.
