Meetings




The GVCG meets on the first Wednesday of each month (except January and July) at 7:30 PM, usually at Christ the Good Shepherd Lutheran Church at 1000 N. Winton Rd., Rochester, NY 14609. We welcome prospective new members to attend a meeting before joining. The programs are varied and cover topics of interest to the lettering artist.

Our November meeting is held at another location, which is determined yearly. Past "field trips" have included the RIT Cary Library, The Sibley Music Library, local frame shops, Loram Productions (helping artists produce high-quality copies and gifts), Barnes & Noble (where we held a Round Robin meeting for members and drop-ins).
