AN INTRODUCTION TO UNCIAL
Four Tuesdays: Jan 9-16-23-30 • 6:30 - 8:30pm EST via Zoom
Thinking Uncial is stodgy, old, and limited? Register for this course to learn how the Uncial hand can gain a 21st-century flair. In existence for thousands of years, Uncial possesses many beautiful qualities and characteristics that can be employed today.
Taught by Jane Shibata, this four-session course will cover the foundations of traditional Uncial, and then the Uncial alphabet will be analyzed and modified to adapt it for contemporary use.
Appropriate for all levels.
