Calligraphy That Inspired a Nation: Learn to Write Like America's Founders

Who was the calligrapher that wrote the Declaration of Independence? How did they write during the American Revolution? What tools did they use? What lettering style? Can I write like they did?

We will explore these questions and more in this hands-on 90-minute program with calligrapher, Debby Reelitz. Participants will get the opportunity to write in script, use a dip nib and ink and scribe a line from the Declaration of Independence. 

This free public program is presented by Otis Library in partnership with the America's 250th Norwich CT Committee and sponsored by Global City Norwich and NCDC through the Project PEACE Impact Fund. All are welcome to attend. Registration is required.
