Join Us for a General Meeting
Cream City Calligraphers and Paper Arts meets at Whitefish Bay High School at 1200 Fairmount Avenue, Whitefish Bay, WI. Evening meetings are held in September, October, November, February, March, April, and May at 7pm. A special John Hancock Dinner is held in January. Guests are always welcome! The meeting place is either in the cafeteria (enter at the Door #3 entrance off of Marlborough Drive) or a room accessed off of Ardmore Avenue. Details regarding the meeting place will be listed in Calligraffiti, our membership newsletter and on our calendar (found on our Events & Activities page). We welcome new members of any skill level. Our meetings feature speakers or hands-on projects related to calligraphy and paper arts. Our purpose is to share ideas and techniques and to bring well-known calligraphers to the Milwaukee area. |
Join us for our next meeting: Thursday, November 21 at 7pm (due to Thanksgiving, we are meeting one week early) Thursday, November 21st at 7:00pm Whitefish Bay High School, 1200 Fairmount Avenue, Whitefish Bay Cafeteria area Enter at Door #3 on Marlborough Drive The Decorated Envelope So you have designed a great looking card....now what? You don't want to just send that great card in a plain white envelope do you? Please join us for our November meeting for a robust Round Robin on decorating ideas for your envelopes. Our volunteers will show us some interesting things to try for your next project. Vellum, making envelopes, large writing, doodle art, stamping and other things you already have in your stash will be used. Some volunteers will be doing demos, and some will be letting you play and take home a little masterpiece. Supplies to bring: any fun, inspiring envelopes you have either received or have done for the sharing table. Last month there were some great projects being shared from our members. Also, please help keep our supply of Stars and Stripe Honor Flight cards and cards for Kathy's House coming in. Christmas Card Exchange We have thirteen members already signed up for the Christmas Card Exchange, please join the fun and put your name and address on the list at the next meeting. Marianne Kanieski will have the sheet near the registration area. You can also email, text or call her to be added to the list. She will then get the list organized right after Thanksgiving and emailed out. |
