Get into the holiday spirit with a one-of-a-kind collaboration between Lauren Beck (Bloomery Art Co.) and Keith Garubba (Whisting Studios), two Lehigh Valley artists with specialties that pair perfectly together to enhance your decorative gift giving.

Each participant will first enjoy the art of paper marbling with Keith, crafting elegant patterning with pigments on specialty papers for gift wrap, tags, or cards.
Additionally, guests will learn techniques from Lauren in script style lettering using brush pens, achieving beautiful calligraphy results to write names or holiday phrases.
Finally, both art forms will be combined to craft tags, cards, or wrap for exquisite gifting! Perfect for a festive date night or friend gathering, guests will leave with unique creations and knowledge in multiple mediums from passionate artists who love what they do.

Note:
This event is geared towards adult learners, but teens 13+ are welcome to join a parent or guardian.

What You’ll Learn:

• Holiday-inspired water marbled patterns, creating unique papers perfect for cards and gift wrap.
•  The art of brush calligraphy for beautiful gift tags, cards, and holiday lettering.

You’ll walk away with multiple marbled papers, finished calligraphy pieces, practice sheets, and completed items ready to gift.

What’s Included:

• All high-quality supplies, for both paper marbling and lettering
• Reference worksheets and practice pages, as well as templated holiday phrases for reference in lettering
