Learn the ins and outs of Art Deco hand lettering with Nick Misani. This four-hour class will quickly cover the foundations of lettering and briskly segue into dramatic uppercase letterforms, unexpected ligatures, geometric scripts, and ornamentation. We’ll cover three Art Deco hand lettering styles to prepare you for your final project: a postcard for a 1920/30s jazz club.

You’ll leave the workshop with:
–  A lettering piece that is both fresh and on-trend (while still being rooted in history) and ready for its Instagram closeup.
–  A general knowledge of this glitzy time in design history as well as a list of resources to continue learning about Art Deco typography and design.
–  All the skills you need to infuse the rest of your work with some Jazz-Age glamour.
