Last exhibition of the year

Elisabeth Schiffhauer exhibits unique calligraphy pieces

Writing a letter by hand? Almost no one does that anymore these days. In the age of email and social media, the computer keyboard has taken over. The appreciation for the beauty of handwriting often falls by the wayside. Yet handwritten words can become works of art when someone like Elisabeth Schiffhauer from Großenbach devotes herself to the craft.

Elisabeth Schiffhauer's passion for artistic writing began with a course at the adult education center. Through continuous training and hard work, she has become an expert in the field of calligraphy and has been teaching calligraphy courses for adults and children at the adult education center for many years. The exhibition will feature a variety of typographies, from Fraktur and Antiqua to Sütterlin and humanistic cursive. Visitors will also be able to discover the expressive side of words and images in Elisabeth Schiffhauer's exhibits. Literary and religious texts are also a central focus, encouraging viewers to reflect. All of the works on display are unique. In addition to pictures, lovingly drawn cards for all occasions are also on display – ideal for surprising special people with an extraordinary Christmas gift or enriching your own collection.

The last vernissage of the year will take place on December 7 from 3 p.m. in an atmospheric setting with homemade mulled wine, coffee, delicious Christmas cookies, bread with lard, and stimulating conversations to round off the year.

The exhibition can be viewed in the entrance area of the pavilions until Sunday, December 28, during the usual opening hours Thursday to Sunday from 3 to 6 p.m.
