Forwarding this info from Beau in Beaumont about a scribal opportunity. It 
sounds like those attending will have the chance to try the techniques, I 

suspect the tools will be provided

Calligraphy and the Call
An interactive Workshop
Sunday, May 22, 2011
3.00 pm @ Art League Houston, 1953 Montrose


Calligraphy is a dynamic part of many religious traditions, flourishing in 
Islamic, Jewish and Buddhist traditions. Four Houston-area calligraphers who 
practice this skill as an expression of their faith will discuss and demonstrate 
the art form and the role it plays in their respective traditions. Workshop 
attendees will also have the opportunity to try their hand at the art form under 
the guidance of participating calligraphers Dr. Ezzat Abouleish, Thich Dao 
Nghiep, Deborah Rolnik Raichman and Fahim Somani.

The program is free and open to public. No registration required!
