Carolingian
with Rory Kotin

Saturday, October 27
School of Visual Arts Annex
214 E. 21st Street
9:30am to 4:30pm

This beautiful minuscule dates from Charlemagne's time in the late 8th century and evolved into a hand that was both easy to learn as well as read. Students will be introduced to this magnificent alphabet through an intense one-day workshop. The Caroline minuscule is approximately 3 pen-widths high, should you wish to rule out a couple of sheets before class. Some experience with a broad-edged pen is helpful.
