Celebrate Lunar New Year Through the Art of Virtual Calligraphy

The Lunar New Year is a time to reset, reconnect, and welcome new beginnings with meaning. As the Year of the Horse approaches, Jojo Liu invites you to celebrate the season through the thoughtful art of Chinese calligraphy. Two upcoming virtual workshops offer the chance to learn, create, and carry tradition forward in a hands-on, modern way.

The Lunar New Year Calligraphy Class is a guided session that introduces the foundations of Chinese brush writing. From the first moment the brush touches the page, students learn how shape, pressure, and order come together to form characters with balance and intention. Participants will explore the structure of auspicious phrases commonly used during the New Year, creating personalized calligraphy pieces that blend tradition with individual expression. This class is open to all levels and requires registration.

For those who enjoy the decorative spirit of the season, the DIY Chinese New Year Couplet Workshop focuses on one of the most recognizable Lunar New Year traditions—writing and displaying red paper couplets. These poetic banners are placed around doorways to invite good luck, joy, and harmony into the home. In this live virtual session, Jojo guides participants through the process of designing their own couplets, combining instruction on brush control and composition with the deeper cultural meaning behind each phrase. In just 60 minutes, students will complete a pair of festive works that carry both beauty and symbolic warmth.

Both classes are held live online, allowing students to join from anywhere and learn in real time. The sessions are structured yet relaxed, making them a good fit for individuals, families, and small groups alike. No knowledge of Chinese is needed to participate—just an interest in creative learning and a willingness to engage with one of the most meaningful traditions of the season.
