Modern Brush Calligraphy Workshop
2026-03-27 17:00 - 20:00 | JM Atelier, Lille Øvregaten 6, Bergen, Norway
Step into the world of modern brush calligraphy and create your own elegant lettering ✍️
Have you ever admired beautifully written quotes and wondered how those flowing letters are made?
In this workshop, you’ll be introduced to the art of brush calligraphy – a creative way of shaping letters with a brush pen, where gentle pressure creates contrast and movement on the page.
Over 3 hours, we will guide you through the essential strokes and show you how letters are built step by step. We’ll move from simple exercises to forming words and small compositions, so you leave not only with new knowledge, but with something you’ve created yourself.
This workshop is designed for beginners who want to try something artistic in a calm and supportive setting.

Travel Sketching - Male Kurs
2026-04-18 17:00 - 20:00 | Turistinformasjon, Strandkaien 3, Bergen, Norway
Slipp løs kreativiteten din i denne avslappede og inspirerende workshoppen i travel sketching – enten du er helt ny eller har litt erfaring med tegning fra før.

Vi starter med en enkel introduksjon til travel sketching. Du får lære grunnleggende komposisjonstips, hvilke materialer som passer best i et kompakt reisesett, hvordan du velger motiv, og teknikker for å skisse raskt mens du utforsker et nytt sted.
Etter introduksjonen er det tid for å skape ditt eget kunstverk! Med utgangspunkt i forberedte fotoreferanser eller dine egne reisefotografier får du eksperimentere med blyanter, tusjer, fargestifter og akvarell i en støttende og kreativ atmosfære.
Workshoppen finner sted på et av byens mest passende og ikoniske steder – Turistinformasjonen – med perfekt utsikt mot Fløyen og Bryggen. Et vakkert miljø for å slappe av, observere og gi liv til reiseminnene dine på papir.
Ingen tidligere tegneerfaring er nødvendig – bare nysgjerrighet og reiselyst!
