Full description

Discover the beauty of traditional Turkish 'Hat' calligraphy in a fun, hands-on 3-hour workshop in the heart of Istanbul! Dive into the fascinating history of this cherished art form and learn the basics from a talented local artisan. Perfect for beginners and art lovers alike!

Begin with an introduction to the history and significance of 'Hat' calligraphy in Ottoman and Turkish culture. Learn about the traditional tools and materials, focusing on how to apply ink or paint onto glass surfaces.

Under expert instruction, practice fundamental strokes and letter forms, adapting techniques for glass painting. Choose a meaningful word, a simple traditional motif, or your name in a stylized script to create.

Carefully transfer your chosen calligraphy design onto the glass panel using specialized inks/paints. Once complete, your artwork will be secured within a beautiful, decorative brass frame. While your piece sets, enjoy complimentary Turkish tea or coffee and traditional snacks, discussing art and Istanbul with your instructor and fellow participants.

Conclude your workshop by taking home your beautifully handcrafted 'Hat' calligraphy, elegantly presented in its brass frame – a unique and personal souvenir of your artistic experience in Istanbul.
