We are thrilled to welcome Bechori to Canada for the very first time! Known internationally for his expressive journaling and signature monoline lettering style, Bechori brings his thoughtful and creative approach to 3 different workshops for this full day event!

This class pass includes 3 different workshops on the same day and includes:

Monoline Lettering Workshop 10:00AM - 12:30PM

In this workshop, Bechori will teach you how to create vibrant, expressive letterforms using dip pens and two colors of fountain pen ink. You'll also learn the basics of how to use and care for dip pens, blend inks beautifully, and write your favorite phrases in a style all your own.

Traveler's Notebook Collage Workshop 1:30PM - 3:30PM

Bechori will guide you through his thoughtful and simple collage techniques to build layered journal spreads that speak to your days, moods, and travels. You’ll learn to create rich, meaningful layouts in your Traveler’s Notebook — all while learning about balance, storytelling, and visual composition.

100 Wishes Workshop 3:45PM - 5:45PM

In this reflective and inspiring class, you’ll be guided through the process of writing your own “100 Wishes” list - a journaling tradition often found in Japanese planners. We’ll break your list into thoughtful categories to make the process feel meaningful, approachable, and even a little bit playful. Once complete, you’ll transform your wishes into a visual keepsake that captures your mindset and intentions moving into 2026 and beyond.
