NEW! The Guild is offering access to our meetings through Zoom for May and June while Neilson Park Creative Centre is closed. Topics and Dates for Meetings 2020/21 are listed on this Meetings Page.
CAGT meets at Neilson Park Creative Centre (NPCC) on the second Thursday of the month at 6:30 p.m. or Sunday afternoons at 1:00 p.m., as scheduled. Guests are welcome to attend one general meeting to learn about the Guild. For more information, please contact us at info@calligraphicartstoronto.ca.
Both CAGT and NPCC offer additional open studio time. Pay on the day $5. These are opportunities to work with others, get inspired and receive help from experienced calligraphers.
