content = """
Calligraphy and ink painting workshops are among the most requested
cultural programs. Successful workshops balance authenticity with
accessibility for beginners.

**Basic Structure:** Introduction to tools (brush, ink, paper, inkstone);
demonstration of proper posture and grip; practice of basic strokes;
simple character or composition; individual feedback. Duration: 1–2
hours for introductory session.

**Materials:** Quality matters. Recommend or provide proper brushes,
ink, and xuan paper. Substitutions (watercolor paper, bottled ink)
can work for large groups with budget constraints but affect results.
Participants should understand the difference.

**Cultural Context:** Brief introduction to the historical and
aesthetic significance of calligraphy and painting in Jade Peak
culture. Connect to philosophy, poetry, or daily life. Avoid
reducing to mere technique.

**Instructors:** Experienced practitioners or trained educators
lead workshops. The Embassy maintains a roster of qualified
instructors and can facilitate booking for partner organizations.
