SUMMARY:Exploring Language\, Politics and Typography: Kelly Walters
DESCRIPTION:Join designer Kelly Walters\, author of the new book Black\, Brown + Latinx Design Educators: Conversations on Design and Race\, alongside design educators David Jon Walker and Shantanu Suman as they discuss the intersection of language\, politics and typography in their design practice. \nIn this panel discussion\, Kelly will share highlights from the interviews in her new book\, and engage in a critical dialogue with contributors Shantanu and David about how handwritten calligraphy has the power to express necessary political truths and how Indian culture can be explored through Devanagari.  \nTogether they will share where they find inspiration and how they have navigated the design industry. \nDavid Jon Walker is a Graphic Designer and Assistant Professor of Graphic Design at Austin Peay State University in Clarksville\, Tennessee. He is also principal of Rhealistic Design\, a design consultancy that is active locally and nationally. As a sought-after Black creative\, Walker works with national political candidates\, PACs\, large non-profits\, governmental entities\, and varying businesses lending his talents to their marketing efforts to increase awareness and further campaigns. He examines social cues and the historical past to shape the aesthetic of his visual voice for personal lettering projects. \nShantanu Suman is an Assistant Professor of Visual Communication at Ball State University\, in Muncie\, Indiana. In a career spanning over seventeen years\, Shantanu has worked in India and the United States as an art director\, graphic designer\, documentary filmmaker\, and design educator. Shantanu constantly draws inspiration from his Indian roots and uses Hindi typography within his work to make Devanagari script relevant in the current design discourse. \nKelly Walters is an Assistant Professor and the Associate Director of the BFA Communication Design program in Parsons School of Design at The New School. In her independent design studio Bright Polka Dot\, she works across platforms to create publications\, exhibitions\, and digital experiences for educational and cultural institutions.

SUMMARY:TDC Letter Walk with Paul Shaw: Two Bronx Neighborhoods – Tremont and Belmont
DESCRIPTION:The Legacy of Letters / TDC lettering walk returns to the Bronx this spring to investigate Tremont and Belmont\, two contiguous neighborhoods in the middle of The Bronx. Tremont abuts Fordham University to the west and Belmont abuts Fordham to the south. These two neighborhoods are full of the usual lettering delights: public schools\, convents and churches\, graffiti\, candy stores\, movie theaters\, dry cleaners\, and funeral homes.  \nBelmont is known as the "Little Italy" of The Bronx. The stores on Arthur Avenue are famous enough to compel Manhattanites to make treks there to buy mozzarella\, cannoli\, cheesecake\, and other Italian specialities. We will end our walking tour with a meal in Little Italy.  \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. \nNote:\nThis tour does not meet at Type Directors Club. Registered tour participants will be informed of the exact meeting place prior to the event.

DESCRIPTION:After their son was born in 2013\, Ned and Brenda began to conceive of a meaningful purpose for the collection of type\, woodblocks\, and line-engraved images that they have been amassing for 20+ years. They decided to create a learning tool\, a unique letterpress book of ABCs that took five years to make. The project combines many facets of their lives: family\, teaching\, letterpress printing\, design\, and collecting. \nThe project was born out of their shared passion for design\, a focus on typography\, an engagement with design history\, and an infatuation with letterpress artifacts. Ned and Brenda strongly believe in the preservation of a living history of letterpress\, as there is no greater tool for teaching future generations of typographers about the craft and the value of hands-on work. \nThey also believe that it is essential to intentionally make space for those projects that are labors of love\, projects that integrate play and discovery into the creative process\, on personal terms. The freedom of those experiments is essential for creative growth. \n \nRegistration for this special event is available on a first-come\, first-served basis. Tickets to the TDC Virtual Salons are free to members only. Non-members are asked for a suggested donation of ten dollars to help fund our free recordings of events and to grow typographic awareness.

From Tuberculosis to Loose Lips Sink Ships\, Only You Can Prevent Forest Fires to Silence = Death\, she'll explore a wide array of topics and methods that have been used to disseminate information to the public for the greater good. She'll start her talk with a brief introduction to Poster House\, the first museum in the United States dedicated to the art and history of the poster. \nAngelina holds an MA in the art of the Russian Avant-Garde from the Courtauld Institute of Art in London\, and a BA in theology and art history from Smith College.

Her research interests include German Expressionism\, Soviet film posters\, and the history of food and wine in advertising. \nAbout Poster House\nPoster House is the first museum in the United States dedicated exclusively to posters. Through exhibitions\, events\, and publications\, the museum presents a global view of posters from their earliest appearance in the late 1800s to their present-day use. Poster House takes its mission from the medium\, aiming to engage and educate all audiences as it investigates large-format graphic design and its public impact. \nPoster House was founded in 2015 with an eye towards filling a long-acknowledged gap in the New York cultural landscape. While there are several poster museums around the world\, New York\, with its long relationship with advertising and design\, did not have such a dedicated public institution. After several years of planning and construction\, Poster House opened its doors on June 20\, 2019. \n \nRegistration for this special event is available on a first-come\, first-served basis. Tickets to the TDC Virtual Salons are free to members\, and available to nonmembers for a suggested donation of ten dollars. \nClick on the registration link to sign up for this live Zoom webinar via Eventbrite.
