We, too, have been yearning, perhaps more than ever, to create connections through messages that must be slowly and deliberately composed, folded, tucked, sealed, addressed, stamped, and sent with care. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe will briefly discuss the origins of letter writing, as well as some of the most remarkable exchanges uncovered to date. Additionally, we will delve into the brass tacks of composing a meaningful missive, including salutations, valedictions, and choosing your tools of the trade. As always, we will provide all materials, including goodies to make your message an aesthetic work of art as well. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eWarmly, Michelle\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePS... we'll learn about the PS too!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-formula-bar-text-style=\"font-size:13px;color:#000000;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;font-family:'Georgia';font-style:normal;text-decoration-skip-ink:none;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eWorkshop includes:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWriting tools\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterials for hands-on activities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClass-appropriate handouts with prompts and resources\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10% off in-store purchases the day of the event\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThis class is for all those 16 and over who wish to continue or cultivate a personal practice of writing – no experience required.
