Designing wedding invitations has never been more fun! This class is kicking off a 3-month series on designing a wedding invitation suite.

Over the next three months, look forward to learning about the different parts of the wedding invitation suite, how to design them, and what to do to get them from your pen or brush to the printer.
Class begins November 8, 2022.

"The faculty and students of Kalli Camp Academy have created a remarkable community of lettering artists and calligraphers; when I chat with a teacher or fellow classmate online, it feels like talking to a friend. The instruction is solid, and the instructors are fast to connect when students reach out. The best part about joining the Kallicamp community has been the constant encouragement that I've received as I've found my path as a new calligrapher."
