Spend a gentle half-day immersed in the quiet dialogue between hand, heart, and light.
Begin by shaping your own lantern—folding, forming, and bringing it to life—then let ink guide you as you explore both Chinese brush calligraphy and European pen traditions. Different tools, different rhythms, yet each stroke becomes a way of breathing meaning onto paper.

You will be invited to write words of blessing, hope, or remembrance, and place them onto your lantern so that what you create is not only decorative, but deeply personal—a small vessel of light carrying your own intentions.

No experience is needed. This workshop is for families, friends, and curious souls who wish to slow down, make something with their hands, and share in a timeless human practice: writing to express what matters.

As Rumi wrote, *“Lamps are different, but the Light is the same.”*
Across cultures, across scripts, we gather around that same light—expressed through ink, paper, and the warmth of creating together.
