Manhattan’s Calligraphy Workshop Scribes in SoHo

SoHo inked last night with Manhattan’s Calligraphy Workshop, scripting NYC’s spring at a Spring Street loft. Artist Mia Chen taught strokes as 40 dipped, a $20 class for quill hands. It’s borough letters—pure SoHo vibe, pens hot. A kid smudged a curve; a pro looped a flourish. ‘Manhattan writes—this is it,’ Chen says, wiping nibs. The room turned scriptorium.

The shop’s fresh—March 15’s kickoff, it doubled since RSVPs, packing desks by 6 p.m. Chen’s a LES scribe; last night’s crowd hit max—ink flowed. A latecomer nabbed a pen; parchment rustled—NYC grit glowed. Works hit the wall—art ruled. #NYCCalligraphy trended; Brooklyn wants a quill.

Some griped—’Too slow,’ sniped a newbie, dodging blots. Space pinched—latecomers stood; craft held. An inkpot tipped—mopped quick; lines rolled. Queens wants a turn, but SoHo owns it—letters rule. The loft’s never scribed so bold.

Chen’s teasing a monthly run, maybe a park if spring bites. ‘NYC’s words—this pens ‘em,’ she says, packing ink. The shop’s a Manhattan win—grit meets grace. It’s a calligraphy rush; join the next. Bring a nib—strokes call.
