Just thought UK typophiles might like to know about the letter carving
workshops run by the Memorial Arts Charity. I completed one of the five day
courses in London recently. It was well run and informative and I want
to support them by recommending them to anyone interested in such pursuits.

I came away from the course with a new perspective and enthusiasm
for letter carving, an idea for a new typeface, and some nice,
albeit slightly wobbly, letters to put on the mantelpiece.
