This course will help us look at letters
as documents that have value as gifts
and bearers of history. In breaking down
the components of the craft,
participants are taught techniques that
can be applied in many forms of
communication and written pieces.
The instructor, Karen Fullerton, has a
passion for letter writing and began her
enthusiastic embrace of the art during a
six-month sojourn in southern France
where she attended the Festival of
Correspondence in a small stone village
of Grignan. She has her Masters of
Education from Tufts University.
