CLAS Regional Day 2014

Some images from the Calligraphy and Lettering Arts Society Regional Day in Durham, Saturday 25 November. The day was hosted by Northumbrian Scribes and included demonstrations, displays and  a raffle. There were superb talks from Professor Ewan Clayton and Dr Manny Ling, and plenty of things to buy from 'Calligraphity', 'Blots' and 'Papers from Bangladesh'. There was also great interest in the Letters After Lindisfarne project.
