Kufic Calligraphy

Event Status : Open

Step into the world of ancient script and bold design in this hands-on Kufic Calligraphy Workshop.


Facilitator : Tarek Eissa

Suitable for ages : 16+

Step into the world of ancient script and bold design in this hands-on Kufic Calligraphy Workshop. Kufic is one of the oldest forms of Arabic calligraphy, known for its strong, angular lines and geometric elegance.

In this workshop, participants will explore the historical significance and artistic beauty of the Kufic style while learning how to construct its distinctive letterforms. Guided by an experienced artist, you'll create your own Kufic-inspired artwork to take home, blending tradition with personal creativity.

No prior calligraphy experience is needed; just bring your curiosity and love for art and culture!


In its ongoing commitment to combatting Islamophobia, the Islamic Museum of Australia champions an understanding and appreciation for Islamic art and culture. The Kufic Calligraphy workshops are supported by the Victorian Government.
