Traditional Turkish Calligraphy Workshop

Die Atmosphäre war wie auch zuvor sehr einladend und ich habe mich sehr willkommen gefühlt. Januar‘24 war ich das erste Mal im Fabrikafa, um eine Mosaiklampe herzustellen. Das war auch eine sehr positive Erfahrung. Und Berşah, die mich mit der Kalligraphie auf Glasmalerei bekannt gemacht hat, war wirklich sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Die Zeit ist verflogen! Es hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht, unter künstlerisch so begabten und herzlichen jungen Leuten zu sein. Wenn ich die Zeit finde, werde ich gern noch einige andere Workshops dort besuchen:) Wenn nicht in diesem Urlaub, dann im nächsten, inshaAllah🥰 PS: der Tee war auch seeeeeehr lecker!

We LOVED this activity! As we have all of the activities at Istanbul Workshops. It was a difficult activity. You do need a steady hand and glasses if you are older or sight impaired. Even my crafty teenage girls, were slightly stressed because they are perfectionists and we were under a time limit. They would have like more “fun” template options. They found/created their own images and personalization. The instructor was lovely and accommodating even helping find a cool font for their names they could copy! Perhaps more flower options, more Turkish or Istanbul images would have been nice. There was only one Whirling Dervish, more would have been lovely. Perhaps more classic or known quotes translated into Arabic in lovely fonts.

We enjoyed our calligraphy experience. It is amazing that we can take home our very own cultural item. The tutor was great and the tea and coffee delicious. Thank you!

I enjoyed this too much, very much engrossed in my painting and we did have a laugh as well, this did not feel pressured or rushed at all. would definitely do this again.

E’ stata una bellissima esperienza.. personalmente e’ stata la prima volta che ho fatto questo tipo di lavoretto. Inoltre le ragazze sono molto gentili e accoglienti.

It was a very interesting workshop and enjoyable time. Our guide/instructor was extremely friendly, and she helped in everything and explained the whole process. The place is nice and cozy. 👍😊
