Places for art classes?
Alison emails:
I'm looking for a pointed pen (modern) calligraphy class. There are a few in New York City I was looking at, but would love to stay closer to home, if possible. I have a pen, nibs, ink, etc. but would love to learn more from a professional. Just doodling in a notebook isn't getting me to where I want to be.
We're going to expand Alison's question to include other types of art classes, especially ones that might be a bit more specialized (like calligraphy). It's been more than five years since we last had an art class question, and things change, so it seemed like a good idea to open it up again.
Got a suggestion for art classes generally, and/or specifically for Alison's calligraphy class question? Please share!

I've been looking for a modern calligraphy class closer to Albany as well! I know of a few in Brooklyn, but haven't been able to find any here so any info would be great!

If you Google "online calligraphy classes," several come up that say they are modern. Online classes can be surprisingly satisfactory.
