Celebrate National Handwriting Day 2020 & Enter Fahrney’s Pens Annual Handwriting Contest!

Fahrney’s Pens invites writers of all ages to celebrate National Handwriting Day on January 23, 2020, and to enter its ninth annual Handwriting Day Contest.

Three winners will be chosen this year. One will win a Sailor 1911 4am fountain pen with medium nib, one will win a Pelikan Gold-Marbled Fountain pen with medium nib, and one will win two bottles of Sailor Jentle Ink.

National Handwriting Day takes place on January 23rd as a birthday tribute to John Hancock whose famous bold signature resides on the Declaration of Independence. Sponsored by the Writing Instrument Manufacturers Association (WIMA), National Handwriting Day is a reminder of the importance of this essential skill and a chance for all of us to re-explore the purity and power of handwriting – the quintessential method of unique and personal expression.

To enter, share with us a favorite memory you have from the last decade.

All entries must be handwritten and can be dropped off at Fahrney’s downtown DC retail store or submitted by mail, fax or email to Fahrney’s headquarters by midnight on January 31, 2020.
