The Art of Calligraphy, a new exhibit created by members of the Calligraphy Guild of Indiana (CGI), is now on display at the Art Gallery at City Hall in Fishers. The exhibition opened on May 24 and will remain on view through June 28.

A free public reception will be held as part of the city’s Second Friday series on Friday, June 13, from 6 to 8 p.m. at Fishers City Hall, located at 1 Municipal Drive. Due to a scheduled Pacers game viewing at the Nickel Plate District Amphitheater at 8:30 p.m., attendees are encouraged to arrive closer to 6 p.m. to allow time for parking in nearby garages.

The reception will feature calligraphy demonstrations by Julia Fish Thompson, Vice President of the Calligraphy Guild of Indiana, along with live music by Scrapper & Skelton, refreshments, and the opportunity to meet several of the calligraphers whose work is on display. An ASL interpreter from GLOBO will also be present to assist with communication.

The exhibit includes more than 80 works representing a wide range of alphabets and artistic styles, showcasing the diversity and creativity within the art of modern calligraphy. The Calligraphy Guild of Indiana is comprised of artists from across the state, ranging in age from 14 to 84, with experience levels spanning from beginners to nationally recognized professionals.

The Guild meets bimonthly in Zionsville and offers additional educational sessions at local libraries. For more information about upcoming events or membership, visit calligin.org.
