Beverley Mellor and Polly Mellor of Mellor and Rose are hosting Modern Calligraphy workshops at various locations across the North West in Lancashire, Yorkshire and Merseyside. Beverley's friendly workshops bring together groups of likeminded people who want to try their hand at this super on-trend lettering style. We would recommend you start with the Beginners workshop where all the basics are taught along with technique and the full Modern Calligraphy alphabet. A starter pack of straight dip pen, nib, practice sheets and stationery are included in all our Beginners workshops.
Kind Words
I have been to the beginners modern calligraphy, beginners brush lettering and the beginners Christmas brush lettering and thoroughly enjoyed all of the classes. The amount of progress I have made in such a short time is amazing. Beverley and Polly are excellent teachers and give fantastic guidance, they spend lots of time with each member of the class, so much is covered. Lucy who handles the booking side is so helpful. Thank you to all at Mellor & Rose!

"Attended a beginners modern calligraphy course on Saturday at Ham and Jam. It was fantastic, the structure of the course was really good, broken down into simple tasks to do. I came away having learnt the basics, which I didn't expect I'd be able to do in such a short time but I did and I cannot wait now to go on the follow on course to learn even more about it. Oh, and the cake was delicious!"

"Fantastic afternoon at the introduction to modern calligraphy class. Beverley is a very skilled and patient teacher. Me and my Mum loved our afternoon. We're now hooked and have bought more ink to keep practicing. Thanks again Beverley!"
