Cut It Out IN-PERSON Workshop

with Dorothy Yuki

Create handmade letters without nibs by cutting, bending, and folding paper to transform the alphabet from 2D to 3D!

During this one-day workshop, spend time at Letterform Archive cutting out letters with calligrapher and artist Dorothy Yuki.

Dorothy will guide you to create recognizable letterforms without pen and ink to explore the alphabet as a form made with paper, blade, and folding.
