SUMMARY:Plant the Seed Learning Series: Handwriting Fun! (Ages 7-18)
DESCRIPTION:Program for kids and teens ages 7-18. \nThe Summer Reading theme this year is “Plant a Seed\, Read!” Each week\, join us for a hands-on workshop where we’ll explore a different hobby\, skill\, or craft. \nThis week\, join calligraphy artist Debby Reelitz to bring the alphabet to life! We’ll look at the rules about letters and then break all of them! Step by step\, you will learn more than 20 techniques to alter your handwriting\, add color with a basic set of supplies and build in decorative elements. We’ll be playing with highlighters\, pencils\, colored pencils\, gel pens and markers. Plus\, we’ll create a mini-project with the techniques we’ll learn. \nDebby Reelitz’s 5th grade teacher introduced her to calligraphy and she loves to share her passion for handwritten letters with young people. Kids are taught the practical side of the alphabet with spelling and writing sentences and taking tests. Debby loves to help kids discover the joy in being creative with those oh-so-useful-26-symbols. Debby lives in North Granby\, Connecticut. Information can be found at her website: https://letteringdesign.com \nEssex Library programs are free and open to the public. \nRegistration is required as space is limited. \nClick here to register!
