Who was the calligrapher that wrote the Declaration of Independence? How did they write during the American Revolution? What tools did they use? What lettering style? Can I write like they did? We will explore these questions and more in this hands-on 90-minute program with calligrapher, Debby Reelitz. Participants will get the opportunity to write in script, use a dip nib and ink, create their own rebel signature and scribe a line from the Declaration of Independence.
For almost 30 years, Debby Reelitz has been a professional calligrapher, creating awards, gifts, commissions, chalkboards, writing on walls, engraving, teaching and much more. She lives in North Granby, Connecticut. Information can be found at her website: https://letteringdesign.com
