This course will focus on learning how to use Chinese brushes and ink, mastering the basic strokes that underpin Chinese writing and understanding the structure of Chinese characters. You will have a piece of calligraphy work on red paper to take home after the course (a perfect gift for the holiday season!).

Dates & times: 13:00 - 13:50 on Tuesdays, 19 November – 10 December
