    Guest artist: Guanping Zheng, Ph.D.

    Chinese culture is steeped in the history of writing, and for two thousand years the tools used to write calligraphy have not changed. The workshop will teach beginners and intermediate learners the skills and techniques to enhance their writing by focusing on the art of calligraphy using traditional inks and brushes. Participants will visit the exhibition Connecting Cultures: Children’s stories from across the World to learn and reflect on the art of translating the written word into visual art. After, everyone will head back to the studios to create their own writing using the principles of calligraphy. This program has been developed in collaboration with the Confucius Institute at Middle Tennessee State University.
