Festival of Calligraphy
Welcome to the 31st Festival of Calligraphy
This year marks our fifth time at the University of Warwick, nestled in the heart of the UK and perfectly situated for travel from all corners of Great Britain and beyond. We are delighted to welcome world-class tutors from Belgium, the United States and, of course, the UK itself.
Our venue, the Scarman Conference Centre, is set within the beautiful grounds of the University of Warwick, just three miles from Coventry’s bustling city centre. It’s easily reachable via major motorways like the M1, M6, M5, M42, A5 and A14, and Coventry is well-connected by the West Coast Mainline with regular train services running seven days a week. Plus, Birmingham International Airport is only a 20-minute drive away.
The Festival kicks off with registration on Sunday afternoon. Our workshops begin on Monday morning, with Session 1 running until Wednesday lunchtime, followed by Session 2 from Wednesday afternoon through to Friday late afternoon. To top it all off, we’ll be celebrating with a gala dinner on Friday night, before we say our goodbyes after breakfast on Saturday morning.
We can’t wait to share this unforgettable celebration of calligraphy with you!
Programme details and booking information will be announced soon.
