[Noisebridge-discuss] Lettering Class

[Stan James]

Hi Darius,

Cool! Yeah, it would be amazing to make our own font! My plan is start with
the old-school fundamentals of calligraphy and lettering, and have a custom
font be something of a "final project" for the class.

I finally got the class page up on the site:
https://noisebridge.net/wiki/Letter_Lovers

We'll meet on Thursday evenings at 6pm as that was best for the initial
interested people  (I'm thinking of also doing an dry-run meeting/class
this Sunday afternoon, as it was our second choice for a slot--let me know
if that'd work better.)

-Stan
