The Dumfries Women’s Signwriting Squad return to the Stove for their monthly meet up, an open space for all women with a love of letters, from the experienced to complete beginners.

The monthly meet up is a space for gathering and sharing skills and ideas, and each month one of the team will set a creative challenge for the group to tackle, or you can bring along an idea you’d like to develop and they can help you work towards your first signboard!
Tea and coffee and basic materials provided. Donations welcome.

Please note that our monthly meet-ups at the Stove are a space solely intended for women and those identifying as to share and develop their practice together. If this demographic does not include you, but you would like to get involved, please send us an email enquiry at [email protected].

This month as part of our monthly meet up we’ll be having a go at hand lettering some festive tree baubles! We’ll have a selection of large plastic baubles available for you to practice on, or feel free to bring your own. This is a great way to practice your casual scripts on a slightly challenging surface.
