Workshops

My greatest joy comes from teaching.  I am a life long learner and love sharing my knowledge with others.  As a practicing artist and art teacher my empathic nature allows me to be a positive and supportive teacher who fosters a stimulating learning environment.  Providing students with a safe space to recognise and understand emotional expression illuminates their authentic self and guides their learning journey.  In each workshop students are guided through the basic principles of calligraphy and an understanding of their new tools of a pen holder, nib and ink.

Calligraphy expresses our unique creativeness through written words and strengthens our connection to each other.  My experience curating calligraphy classes has led me to explore calligraphy as a expression of self.  Our handwriting is unique to each of us and I believe that it can make people feel connected through written words and each other.  Bringing people together through a workshop to feel part of a community and build a sense of belonging is my honour.  To watch students take their first hesitant stokes to writing full sentences and quotes is rewarding.  In my workshops participants explore and nurture their own handwriting.  This is what I believe to be the essence of calligraphy and the keeper of the soul.

SOME KIND WORDS

  • "Kerry's skills, positivity and gentle guidance made for an enhanced calligraphy lesson. A great way to participate in Melbourne's Design Week. Thank you again."

    — Ticia, Melbourne Design Week Workshop

  • "Highly recommended to anyone looking for something soul-nourishing, uplifting, and exquisitely crafted from start to finish.”

    — Evie, Private Workshop

  • "Kerry just didn’t teach calligraphy - she created an experience that touched the heart. This was far more than a workshop; it was a truly outstanding and memorable journey into creativity, beauty, and connection."

    — Sophie, Workshop @FlowersVasette

  • “From the moment I stepped into the sunlit venue, I knew this wasn’t going to be just another workshop - it was going to be something truly special. . . It felt like walking into a thoughtfully curated haven of creativity and connection. Kerry’s ability to share her passion and expertise so generously made the entire morning nothing short of inspirational. "

    — Julie, Workshop @FlowersVasette

workshops for events

We want to share the joy of writing and understand its purpose in connecting with not just ourselves but others. If you wish for us to host a calligraphy/brush lettering class for your next event, please reach out to tailor an experience that meets your specific vision and numbers.

workshops for schools

As a practicing artist of calligraphy, my depth of knowledge is continually being enhanced.  I create and express myself with different mediums that reflect my life experiences.  Having been an artist in residence, I have seen first hand the importance and sheer joy the Visual Arts evokes.  These essential opportunities cultivate the process of art making and agency,  contributing to the students wellbeing.  Providing children with a safe space to recognise and understand emotional expression,  illuminates their authentic self and guides their creative journey.

I am excited about the opportunity to contribute my skills and achievements in curating a workshop to suits the needs of your school and students.
