This is great! Many thanks for this link, I feel sad I missed it in July, but I hope they’ll do another one in London...

Ken, there are still a few stonecarvers left; Chris Stinehour is here in the Bay Area; he works out of Berkeley.

Tasty. Too bad I’m way

Memorial Arts Charity Letter Carving workshops

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.
