Unleash Creativity & Spark Connections: Team Building with Modern Calligraphy

December 11, 2024

Did you know calligraphy can be a powerful tool for team building? Last November, Happy Hands Project brought the joy of modern calligraphy to White & Case’s GRIT CON event in Makati City.

This fun and engaging modern calligraphy workshop at a team building event provided a unique opportunity for the attendees to bond, unleash their creativity, and learn a new skill together. While short in duration, the session was bursting with laughter and a sense of accomplishment as participants explored the world of modern calligraphy. It was heartwarming to see how they embraced the art form, transforming simple strokes into elegant script.

Calligraphy, often seen as a solitary pursuit, can be a surprisingly effective team-building activity. It fosters a sense of camaraderie, as participants encourage and learn from one another. The focus and precision required in calligraphy can also help individuals develop mindfulness and patience, qualities that are invaluable in both personal and professional life.

Why Calligraphy for Team Building?

Modern calligraphy workshops offer a refreshing departure from traditional team-building activities. It’s a creative outlet that allows colleagues to:

  • Connect on a personal level outside the daily grind
  • Develop focus and patience
  • Practice clear communication and collaboration
  • Celebrate individual and team achievements

Looking to create a memorable and engaging experience for your team?

Here’s what Happy Hands Project can offer:

  • Experienced Instructor: I will be teaching the class and personally guide your team with patience and enthusiasm
  • Flexible Workshop Formats: I can design a workshop that fits your specific time constraints and team size.

When was the last time you wrote a letter to yours When was the last time you wrote a letter to yourself? 💌 
 
During ou workshop, everyone received these pretty Cafe Mary Grace greeting cards. The prompt was simple: write something heartfelt. It could be for a loved one, or a message for your future self. 
 
I decided to write to my future self for this demo. No need for perfection, just enjoying the ink touching the paper, especially when the paper is this smooth. 
 
Save this for the next time you need a reminder to slow down and check in with yourself. 🤍

A slow afternoon well spent. 🤍    I recently taugh A slow afternoon well spent. 🤍 
 
I recently taught the very first workshop for @cafemarygrace ‘s Art of Slow series at their gorgeous Parqal Mall branch. Instead of worrying about perfect technical form, we focused entirely on intention, mindful creation, and embracing the simple joys of slow living. 
 
The afternoon culminated in everyone writing a heartfelt letter to themselves or someone they love, finished with a traditional wax seal. ✉️✨ 
 
To cap off the experience, we treated our senses to Mary Grace’s delicious new menu additions: the Vigan Longganiza Pasta, refreshing Lemon Basil Soda, and their delicious Mango Mousse. 
 
Thank you to everyone who paused their busy days to create with us. Here’s to more moments of slowing down.

This time I’m trying it out with my Pilot parallel pen and On Ink’s ‘turon’. We Filipinos like lumpia and turon is a version of it that’s filled with brown sugar, jackfruit strips and sweet plantain bananas (called ‘saba’ bananas locally). 😊

I got two new inks from @inksbyvinta during the @manilapenshow. Haribon turned out to be a desaturated version of lavender, kind of like its introverted sister. It’s a beauty and I love it. The shimmer didn’t show up on the Rhodia pad, so I have to try it on a different kind of paper. 
 
Makopa, on the other hand, is loud and screams ‘main character’. It’s mostly a bright magenta when used with a broad nib. It reminds me of the fruits from our makopa tree we had when I was a kid. 🩷
