The IAMPETH Annual Convention is a wonderful week of learning the pen arts with some of the best penmen and calligraphic artists in the country.

Our conventions have several unique features:

Excellent instructors have included: Timothy Botts, Mike Kecseg*, Valerie Weilmunster, Michael Sull*, Maria Thomas, John DeCollibus*, Bill Lilly*, Cathy Ledeker, Vivian Mungall*, Jean Wilson, Dr. Joseph Vitolo and Rosemary Buczek* to name just a few.

Cutting edge technology is used for workshops, such as the Dukane digital projection system. The system allows the instructor to project his or her hand as the pen makes the stroke. Watching the instructor's hand actually use the pen or brush is the best way to learn the pen arts.

Half-day and full-day courses give the student the opportunity to learn a broad variety of skills from several different instructors.

Reasonable prices.  A week of instruction for less than the price of many weekend workshops makes the IAMPETH Convention one of the best calligraphic bargains to be found!

The IAMPETH Archive Collection, an amazing collection of rare samples of historic master penmanship, is available all week long for attendees to see and study.

Banquet & Master Penman Ceremony.  The Master Penman Ceremony is IAMPETH's way of honoring members who have achieved a high level of proficiency in the pen arts.

Friends and Fellowship. Spend a week renewing old friendships and starting new ones with like-minded scribes who share the love of calligraphy, engrossing and fine penmanship.
