Program Description

Event Details

Let’s create playful letters with brush pens! Taught by calligrapher, Debby Reelitz. Lettering with a brush is fun and challenging all at the same time. We will go through a series of activities that make brush lettering easier to learn–and make a card in the process of practicing! No knowledge of cursive handwriting required.

Space is limited and registration is required.

About our presenter: Debby Reelitz is a professional calligrapher in North Granby, Connecticut. Introduced to calligraphy by her 5th grade teacher, she dabbled for years until opening her own calligraphy studio in Chicago before moving to northern Connecticut. For more than 25 years, she has been a professional lettering artist, creating awards, gifts, commissions, chalkboards, writing on walls, engraving, teaching, and much more. 

Like all our teen events, this program is totally free to attend, open to anyone in Grades 6-12, and sponsored by the Friends of the Southbury Public Library. This event is also part of our 2024 Summer Reading Program: Read, Renew, Repeat.
