Calligraphy Workshop

with guest artist Max Gibbons

For our unit on "Art as a Voice", we explored ways to use art to express important and underrepresented messages, perspectives, and voices.

Max Gibbons, calligrapher and muralist formerly based in the DMV, provided a virtual workshop on calligraphy basics, and demonstrated his technique by skillfully writing the name of each Chinatown Art Studio youth artist on placards!

The placards were then mailed to each student as a gift.
