Welcome to the Calligraphers Guild of Jacksonville! The Calligraphers Guild of Jacksonville is a group of calligraphy enthusiasts whose purpose is to promote the study and practice of calligraphy, to encourage individual excellence and foster a wider, deeper appreciation of the art form, its history and application. Our meetings provide programs on a variety of topics of interest for beginning to professional calligraphers and also afford us the opportunity to mingle with other calligraphers, share our accomplishments and discuss problems and solutions we find in our art work. Our members have access to a multimedia library of books, videos, slides, magazines and newsletters. In addition, we traditionally sponsor two exhibits and one to three workshops during the year.

Membership
We meet six times a year, normally on the second Tuesday of the month, at 6:45 p.m. We are accommodated graciously by the San Jose Elementary School (5805 Saint Augustine Road, Jacksonville), which allows us to meet in their library and also houses the Guild's library.

Workshops
For further information, contact Bobbi Yoffee [904-733-9619] or Denice Nitschke [904-225-8267].

Please keep an eye on the Calendar of Events for details on upcoming workshops.
