NEW special intensive 12-Day Advanced Signwriting Course announced - plus new dates for 5-day Course

30 November - 11 December 2015
Joby's new unique 12-day intensive signwriting course covers all aspects of detailed and decorative signwriting as used on the fairground, from marbling and gilding, to coachpainting and lining, to shading and blending and much, much more. This is an intensive course designed for people who would like to enter the profession or develop their existing practice. If you would like to just have a dabble in signwriting as a hobby for the first time, then we would recommend the 5 day course. The course includes all materials and lunch, and you will be able to take your own work home at the end. Please note we cannot provide accommodation on the yard - check out http://www.cartersentertainment.com/signwriting.html for more details and to book. The courses hold 15 people so please book early to avoid disappointment.
