Still thinking about joining one of our fall workshops? We’re giving you a little extra time. Scholarship applications are extended through August 23 at 11:59 PM ET.

This semester we’re also offering Pay What You Can. Choose a contribution that works for your budget. Applications will be considered on a rolling basis—so get yours in first! Full details are available on our Scholarship Page.

Type Design Development Workshop is a critique-based course with no lectures and no b.s.! Each student will bring in a project that is in its early or middle stages to work on for the duration of this class. Over the span of 10 weeks, students participate in biweekly small-group critiques, with optional office hours between sessions for questions and technical support.

Note: This is an application-based course. The deadline to apply is Sunday, August 23, 11:59 PM ET.

We also just announced our fall virtual lecture series, Who Builds the Future?, curated by Flavia Zimbardi.

The type industry is changing fast. AI, consolidation, open-source libraries, shifting distribution, and an increasingly crowded marketplace are changing what it means to build a sustainable practice.

This series explores a shared anxiety: Is there a future in type?

Through conversations with people who have built new models, we’ll examine what it takes to move beyond making typefaces to shaping the field. What did it take? What did it cost? And what can we take away from their experiences?

Free + online. More details coming soon → check it out
