Competition chairs and TDC Board invite you to an after-hours tour of “World’s Best Typography” before it closes Aug 10. Free. No reservations needed. Show up at 41 Cooper Square at 6pm next Tuesday for a one-hour guided stroll through the world’s best by Joe Newton and Angela Voulangas.

It will be fun, enlightening, and give you a behind-the-scenes idea of what it takes to select 15 winning typefaces and 200 communication designs from more than 2,000 entries from around the world. Talk about the state of design today, and chime in to tell us your favorites.

After next Thursday, this exhibit begins its US and world tour. If you haven’t spent enough time in the gallery before the show leaves, this would be a great time to stop by.
