SUMMARY:Type Thursday NYC
DESCRIPTION:TypeThursdayNYC is a monthly gathering of type geeks\, held at Type Directors Club. We like to think of ourselves as a type superfamily: we attract local letterform lovers hailing from all disciplines and levels of expertise. Social hours bookend the centerpiece of our event\, a group critique we refer to as Type Crit. \nWhat the font is Type Crit‽\nBriefly: It’s a critique. Of letterforms. No grades. Plenty of wine. \nVerbosely: Type Crit is a group critique of up to four\, in-progress projects involving letterform design and/or usage. You can get\, give\, or simply listen to feedback—your pick! Discussion is moderated by a TypeThursdayNYC dialogue lead—we pride ourselves on fostering a friendly forum for constructive\, thoughtful advice that’ll raise the baseline on your letterform game. \nQUICK LINK: Sign up to present work for feedback at Type Crit\nWhat’s the program for the evening? \n6:00pm – 6:45pm: Check in & Socializing\n6:50pm: Opening Statements | Introduction\n7:00pm – 8:00pm: Type Critiques\n8:00pm: Closing Comments | Outro\n8:10pm – 8:45pm: Socializing & End of Event

SUMMARY:Lettering Walk with Paul Shaw: Greenwood Heights and Sunset Park
DESCRIPTION:Join us to explore the adjacent neighborhoods of Greenwood Heights and Sunset Park that straddle Fourth Avenue and butt up against Gowanus Bay and the Upper Bay of New York Harbor. These are working class and immigrant neighborhoods that—fingers crossed—have not yet been gentrified.  \nIn both neighborhoods\, we will show you a mix of vernacular lettering (with Mexican influence)\, classical roman capitals and 19th century grotesques for government institutions\, a small bit of Art Deco\, and some 1950s scripts. We will take a small detour into Green-Wood Cemetery (established 1838)\, one of the historically most important cemeteries in the United States\, and we might finish up at a letterpress shop. \nPaul Shaw has conducted regular walking tours of lettering in New York City since 2005 for the Type Directors Club and other organizations. He has also led similar tours of Boston\, Buffalo\, and Atlanta for SoTA (the Society of Typographic Aficionados). \nPaul is the author of Helvetica and the New York City Subway System\, which has been republished by The MIT Press this year. He has been a calligrapher for over 40 years and has designed 18 typefaces. He is the principal of Paul Shaw / Letter Design and teaches calligraphy at Parsons School of Design and the history of typography at the School of Visual Arts. \nParticipants will be notified of the meeting point in Brooklyn prior to the event. (Note: The Type Directors Club in Manhattan is not the starting point for this walk!)
