Beginners Calligraphy Workshop Ticket
Beginners Calligraphy Workshop Ticket
You've spent all week taking care of everyone else - the kids, the job, the people who need you. Now, it's your turn.
A morning in Sydney CBD where the only person you have to take care of is you - a hot coffee in hand, calligraphy pen in the other, and a couple of hours when no one needs anything from you 😌
The moment you're in right now
It's 9:47pm. The lunches are made. Uniform and school hat ready to go. You've replied to the group chat, picked up the last Ooshie off the living room floor and somehow also cooked dinner 🫠
And now you're lying in bed thinking: when was the last time I did something just for me?
Not 'self-care' as another to-do list item. Something that felt like it belonged to you. Something slow. Something beautiful.
If you can't remember the last time, this one's for you.
What if, for one morning, your only job was to slow down, do something fun and learn something just for you?
No one needs you. No one's calling out for you. No one's asking you for more snacks.
Just you, a cup of HOT coffee, a small room full of women who get it, and a beautiful calligraphy pen gliding across paper - slow, deliberate, calm.
This is a weekend reset button with your name on it ❤️
Come alone, or bring your favourite people
Fire up the group chat and bring your besties, or come solo and leave with a room full of new ones. Either way, you'll spend the morning surrounded by like-minded, creative women who understand exactly why this morning matters.

Nikki provided all the necessary materials and gave clear instructions to help with beginners. She was very knowledgeable and also provided the digital materials after the session so we could practise at home. The size of the group was intimate allowing time for Nikki to support each member.
This workshop is an excellent introduction to modern calligraphy and is a lot of fun. I highly recommend it! Nikki is the loveliest and an excellent teacher; she takes the time to guide and encourage each student, which I appreciate very much. Nikki equips you with all the tools and materials you need to start on your calligraphy journey. The venue is very accessible, too, and is a very welcoming space.
I had previously purchased an online calligraphy course that left me feeling completely overwhelmed and discouraged. I was ready to give up. Then I came across Nikki's workshop and decided to give it one last try before throwing in the towel. I'm so glad I did! Nikki quickly identified a few small things I was doing wrong, and with her guidance, everything started to click. I completed the entire beginner’s booklet during the session, and my confidence has been completely restored. I finally feel excited about calligraphy again!
Thanks for a great class, Nikki. It was a perfect introduction to modern calligraphy. I really appreciate your kit and all the emailed materials.
Many thanks!
Thanks Nikki for a wonderful session. 3 hours flew by and within that time, I learnt the fundamentals tl take away with me to practice my newly acquired skill. It's the perfect personal touch I've always wanted to add to my home made goods I made for fam and friends.
Nikki observed me and provided tips on getting the best style strokes.
Materials were provided so it was handy to get started on practising straight away and Nikki provided plenty of into on where to get supplies, recommendations and how to care my new items. The personalised agate was a lovely touch and to remember this occasion.
I'd recommend this for anyone looking to learn calligraphy, and or anyone looking for something relaxing to learn and do - you're in good hands with Nikki.
Excited to welcome you!
My goal is to deliver the absolute best calligraphy workshops ever and am proud to always give you the best experience from when you walk through our studio doors to beyond! 🥹🫶🏼
I'm looking forward to meeting you!
