14th August: World Calligraphy Day

The 14th of August has been designated as World Calligraphy Day. Calligraphy is a written form of art. It is now employed in many design concepts for advertising and promotion, and it is simple to do thanks to today’s superior technology. However, calligraphy has a long history that has influenced numerous cultures around the world. World Calligraphy Day recognizes this heritage and hopes that people may pursue calligraphy as a hobby.
