Horseheads Library-Graceful envelop with Wynn Yarrow

Graceful Envelope Open Studio (calligraphy art and design)

Design and create an entry for the national ‘Graceful Envelope’ contest. A range of supplies and tools will be available for your use. Use illustration and hand lettering or calligraphy to express an idea within the theme: “Go Fourth.”

Explore something that comes in fours, is associated with sets of four, or is commonly cut into fourths. For example, the phases of the moon, the points of a compass, the seasons, the Four Freedoms, an apple that's been quartered. Then, using artistry, artistic lettering, and the integration of postage stamps into your design, create an envelope that captures your interpretation of the theme.
