​

Our membership contains professional calligraphers, talented practitioners, and rank beginners. Some have found calligraphy a creative outlet; others have discovered an enthralling hobby.  Some have found a place to belong; others, a place for escape.  Many of us are artists in other disciplines - printers, bookbinders, graphic artists, designers, writers, and students - and some are simply observers who like what they see.

The guild sponsors workshops throughout the year taught by nationally and internationally renowned instructors. FotA members receive discounted fees for these classes.

Members are also invited to participate in exhibits, craft and art shows, and special events relating to the calligraphic arts.  We offer members access to an extensive collection of calligraphy and lettering related books, DVDs, and other media through our Library.
