Our calligraphy master class in Shanghai was a highlight of our trip. The session was incredibly interesting and well-structured. It began with an informative introduction to the art's history, which really helped us appreciate the craft. The practical part was both challenging and fun – getting to paint with the brushes was a hands-on experience we loved. We were also thrilled that we could keep our artwork as a souvenir. What made it truly special, however, was the personal touch. After the class, we had a lovely, heartfelt talk with the host and even exchanged small gifts. It felt like a genuine cultural exchange, not just a tourist activity. We enjoyed every minute and would definitely recommend this master class to anyone visiting Shanghai.

Lucy is an amazingly proficient, knowledgeable, and friendly teacher and calligrapher. The workshop was even better than we had dared hoping for! Lucy has taken us through the history of Chinese writing styles and calligraphy with plenty of interesting stories. She also guided us through the process of creating our own piece of art and took all the time we needed for it. Lucy gave us the freedom to try other calligraphy styles. Besides that, she really took the time to answer all of our many questions. We highly recommend doing this workshop to enrich your China experience and bring your own artwork back home as a unique souvenir. Thank you Lucy for an amazing experience!

Had an afternoon to myself and so glad I did because I was able to take Lucie’s class. She is so kind, patient, and welcoming. She explained some of the history behind the art of calligraphy before giving us time to practice and ultimately creating our scroll or fan. Wonderful class!

Lucie was an excellent guide and teacher, with some great hands training for doing calligraphy. She showed us how to do the characters we selected, then helped refine our technique, each of us leaving with a nice example of the handiwork. I highly recommend the diversion from the usual sight seeing activities!
