Doors open at 9.30am and there is a break for lunch.  Tea/coffee available to purchase, please bring your own lunch.

​Workshops cost £25 for everyone (unless stated otherwise). 
Untutored Practise Days are working get-together days where members practise previous workshop scripts or develop their own projects, in company of other calligraphers who can offer support.  Previous workshop handouts can be available if requested in advance (use our Contact Us form to request).

Membership fees cover advance venue bookings and ensure the continuance of our group, so participants who attend more than two sessions will be expected to become a member (fee £25).  Booking is essential, as places are limited.

Members of West Country Scribes receive priority booking up to four weeks before the workshop, after which it will be opened to any non-members on our waiting list.

To enquire about any workshop, please contact Bee Ottway - her phone number and email are on any workshop details, or use this website's Contact page form.
