About the Presenter:
Jana Ricci is a self-taught artist and when people took up various new hobbies during COVID, she honed her talents towards calligraphy.

Jana currently teaches classes in Central Florida and Montana, works with businesses to tell their story in a creative way, and produces custom pieces for gifts and celebrations.
