Letter Quest

Are you seeking more adventurous ways of letter-making?

During this online workshop that runs for three Wednesdays in a row, starting on September 13, Kelcey Gray will guide you through twenty-six letter-making prompts, like revealing hidden letters in your environment or crafting new drawing tools, that encourage letter-making awareness, originality, and confidence.

Practice, experiment, and play while meeting other letterers. This workshop is accessible to everyone, from beginners to experienced type designers: all are welcome.

• Learn new, unfamiliar ways of drawing and making letters
• Practice self-generosity in your lettering practice

• Tracing paper
• Acrylic paint (or similar wet media)
• Brush
• Adobe Scan or phone camera
• Miro (for sharing our work with each other!)
