2024 Stationery Fest + Workshop

  • The Greenpoint Terminal Warehouse (Ground floor) 67 West Street Brooklyn, NY, 11222 United States (map)

Nib Tailor will offer in-person grinds, tuning, and repairs of fountain pen nibs to suit your handwriting. Custom work can be done to any brand of pen that you own. Carolina Pen Co. created the pen blanks that my bespoke nib tester set is made from and I am thrilled to share table space at Stationery Fest with them. Come find us!

Nibwork reservation scheduler activates July 26th. (Subscribe to Newsletter for notifications.)


JC is also leading the Smooth Strokes: Inner Workings of a Well-Tuned Nib workshop for those who learn best by getting their hands involved. Nib Tailor will guide participants through fountain pen nib anatomy and manipulation to establish a general understanding of what makes a nib write well. Fee includes a nib “sewing kit” to continue your own tailoring explorations at home. [WORKSHOP FILLED, NO FURTHER OPTION FOR EXPANSION. Thank you for your enthusiasm!]

Workshop reservation scheduler activates June 1st. (Subscribe to Newsletter for notifications.)

[19 July 2024 Update: Nib Tailor will set up at Market Space E4 with Carolina Pen Company . The E9 currently mentioned on https://stationeryfestival.com/exhibitors/thenibtailor is incorrect. Also note, after the class, I will relocate from Workshop Space 1 to the Market Space and provide walk-in services on a first come basis (no sign-in, no calls) until the first appointment begins at 12pm.

[12 June 2024 Update: Workshop expansion has filled from the waitlist. You are invited to submit a request to be added to the waitlist in the event of cancellations.]

[01 June 2024 Update: Workshop is full. Thank you for your interest. If twelve more serious prospective participants inquire, I will speak with the event organizer about opening a second workshop.]
