A celebration of Letterforms and Ephemera
Event Navigation
The Department of Typography and Graphic Communication is holding a one-day symposium on Saturday 13 July, where world-class experts in design research, teaching, and practice will discuss ways of positioning ephemera within graphic design and typeface design. Participants will experience the visual richness of printed ephemera through illustrated talks and hands-on sessions with material from our collections of ephemera.
Hands-on sessions will be conducted by Martin Andrews, Paul Luna, Lucienne Roberts, and Michael Twyman. Talks will be given by Rathna Ramanathan and Fred Smeijers.
The Symposium will begin at 10:00 in the Department of Typography, and conclude at 17:30.
Lunch will be provided in the Meadow Suite. The event is capped to 60 participants to enable close access to the material, discussion and networking.
