Graceful Envelope Contest: The Superlative Letter S

A fun way to jump-start a creative 2014 is by entering the Graceful
Envelope Contest, conducted by the Washington (DC) Calligraphers Guild and
the National Association of Letter Carriers.

The 2014 theme, The Superlative Letter S, asks calligraphers to create a
Graceful Envelope by symbolizing some sentiment starting with the letter S and
addressing it in sublime or spirited script. Deadline is March 24, 2014;
there is no entry fee.

See the Call for Entries

downloadable
flier <http://www.calligra phersguild. org/PDF/2014Grac efulEnvCall. pdf>.
Please spread the word among your guilds and local schools, because there
are three separate categories for children. Winners will be chosen based on
artistic hand lettering, creative interpretation of the theme and effective
use of color and design, including incorporation of postage stamp(s).
