About us

The Mandarin Ink and Brush Society is a welcoming space for anyone interested in the traditional art of Chinese calligraphy. Whether you are a seasoned practitioner looking for a regular place to focus on your practice or a complete beginner curious about how to hold a brush for the first time, you are welcome to join us. Our sessions are informal and centered around the shared quiet concentration that comes with working with ink and rice paper.

We meet to practice basic strokes, explore different script styles, and share techniques in a supportive environment. There is no pressure to produce a masterpiece; the goal is simply to learn, exchange tips, and enjoy the meditative nature of the craft together. Please bring your own brushes and ink if you have them, though we have a few extra sets on hand for those just starting out. We look forward to sitting down at the table with you.
