SUMMARY:Wang Ning Chinese Calligraphy Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join  79° West and the Chatham Artist’s Guild for a Wang Ning Chinese Calligraphy Workshop on Sat\, Feb 21\, 11am-4pm. A day of immersion in traditional Chinese brushwork and the meditative exploration of its relationship to ink and paper\, Wang Ning welcomes both beginners and experienced practitioners. Step by step\, Master Wang will guide you in this ancient art: \n\nGrinding your own ink in the traditional way – a meditative preparation for picking up the brush and touching the paper.\nStudying one or more characters in depth.\nEnvisioning writing.\nWriting! Not painting.\nWeaving form and meaning as you write.\n\nThe cost is $80 per person and includes supplies of ink\, paper\, and a brush. You may bring your own supplies if you have them. Vegan chili will be served for lunch; please bring a sandwich or other lunch items of your choice. Each participant will receive a personal calligraphy as a gift (your Chinese name or another meaningful word). The workshop will be limited to the first 20 participants. If you are able\, please let them know early that you intend to participate and contact Violet so Wang Ning knows which supplies to bring. RSVP via email at mountainlaughing@gmail.com. You can pay via cash\, check\, or Venmo at @violet-may-anderson. \nWang Ning is a master calligrapher and Chinese seal maker in addition to being a Tai Chi adept. His writing in Chinese characters reflects the same kind of flow and relaxed breathing of Tai Chi Chuan: playful yet precise and focused. A philosopher and optimist\, Master Wang makes the art of brush writing accessible and enjoyable.  \n\nThis indoor event is open to coworking members and the public. Part of MOSAIC at Chatham Park.
