THE TYPE IS RIGHT

Are you crazy for Courier? Gonzo for Garamond? Mad for Meta? Does your quick brown fox jump over your lazy dog?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then come on down to “The Type is Right,” AIGA/NY’s first-ever typographic game show at Galapagos Art Space in Dumbo, Brooklyn.

Join us for 3 rounds of typographic trivia and general hilarity as teams of three go head-to-head with other font fetishists for the honor of being AIGA All-Borough Type Champions.

Starring:

Ellen Lupton, emcee for the evening

Co-starring four teams of cut-throat competitors captained by:

Paula Scher, Louise Fili, and Chester Jenkins
Roger Black, Allan Haley, and David Jonathan Ross
Jonathan Hoefler, Andy Clymer, and Sara Soskolne
