Greater Cincinnati Calligraphers' Guild

Meeting Saturday, January 20

Meeting Sat. January 20, 2-4 p.m.

I wanted to give you an update about tomorrow.

Patty had a great idea to have a bag sale. We will have different size bags for different prices, think $5 for a small bag, $10 for a medium and $15-20 for a larger bag. Karen so hoped we could use this sale to help raise funds for the guild and we are blessed with a lot of supplies, some used, some brand new. Here is a short list of what we’ll have available.

  • Inks: acrylic, alcohol, sumi and etc.
  • Paper: Small place cards, greeting card blanks, flat larger sheets and paper pads.
  • Nibs galore: Speedball, and a lot of vintage nibs, which would be great for trying out
  • Pastels
  • Gilding Supplies
  • Gouache
  • Watercolors
  • Golden products: very limited
  • Office supplies
  • Books
  • File cabinet
  • Tall slant desk cabinet

I will be adding some photos to our Facebook page and any furniture leftover will be offered on Marketplace.

Please feel free to share this information with any other arts organizations such as CBAS and others.

The address is: 9467 Montgomery Road. Cincinnati, Ohio 45242 

Karen’s obituary was published yesterday and can be located at this link: https://www.cincinnati.com/obituaries/pwoo0693320

If nothing else, come and reminisce about our memories with Karen, take one last look at the studio where so many of us took lessons from her. Pick up a nib or two and create something for National Handwriting Day on January 23.
