Can you cover my dietary requirements?

Please let us know upon booking your space what your dietary requirements are so we can pass them onto the catering company. Please ensure you make it clear if it is a serious allergy.

I'm left handed, can I still learn modern calligraphy?

Of course, there are plenty of left handed calligraphers. Jodie Rose will guide you through any questions you have and will give you tips throughout the workshop.

My handwriting is awful, will I be good at modern calligraphy?

Modern Calligraphy is more like drawing, than writing. It's a slow and mindful activity where you form letters from single strokes, instead of rushing through the letters to write. So long as you take your time, you will be just fine at learning this form of lettering.

I don't understand colour mixing, will I be guided through the watercolour workshop?

Yes! The tutors are very hands on throughout the workshops and will answer any questions you have. The demonstrations and worksheets are very detailed too. Helen knows how to mix any colour - she's a watercolour wizard.

What time does it start and end?

The retreat starts at 10:00 and finishes at 16:30. Please arrive 10 minutes before the start time to ensure you have time to settle in, grab a drink and get chatting to the other attendees! There will be a small shop of items from Jodie Rose and Helen after the retreat ends.

Is there parking?

Yes, there is plenty of parking around Farnham and as it's a Sunday, it'll likely be free. There's on-the-road parking outside Farnham Museum on West Street, or the (paid for) Waitrose car park is a short walk away.
