About Cheerio

Cheerio Calligraphy Retreats are a well-known calligraphy & book arts workshop/retreat held twice a year in the Blue Ridge mountains of North Carolina. (Current Classes) For one week in the spring and one week in the fall, participants have access to quality, uninterrupted study/work time and exposure to world-renowned calligraphic or book artists.
