SUMMARY:Putting Pencil to Pixel with Angy Che
DESCRIPTION:Unlock the power of the iPad to create dynamic\, polished\, and punchy lettering. No previous Procreate or lettering experience is required.\nThis workshop is for anyone who is interested in bringing words to life through the art of lettering. Although we’ll be using the iPad and Apple Pencil as our main set of tools in this course\, the same lessons and principles that you’ll learn can be applied to analog mediums. Over the course of four weeks (Thursdays from May 25 through June 15)\, we’ll walk through the foundational skills that will enable you to create unique lettering pieces that can be applied to both personal and professional projects. \nWe will begin by laying a conceptual foundation for lettering approaches and type anatomy while learning the technical side of working in Procreate. The second half of the workshop will build on that foundation through sketching and iterating on dynamic compositions and using a variety of techniques to create finished\, polished lettering pieces that you’ll be proud to share. So whether you’re new to lettering\, Procreate\, or both\, you are welcome to join us on this four-week journey!

SUMMARY:Frank Ingerson and George Dennison: A Bay Area Love Story in Arts & Crafts (1910-1966)
DESCRIPTION:The Splendid Disarray of Beauty (2023) tells two intertwined stories\, one of love\, the other of art. \nIn 1910\, the San Franciscans Frank Ingerson and George Dennison became permanently paired in life and love. Known among their friends and in their community as the Boys\, they remained in a de facto common law marriage for 55 years. \nIn the eastern foothills of the Santa Cruz mountains they established the first stand-alone summers-only art school in California. The school was devoted to the lifestyle and aesthetic of the American Arts & Crafts movement\, which aimed to imbue beauty into every element of day-to-day living\, taking nature as a source of inspiration in doing so. \nThe school lasted only four years but had a significant impact on the California art scene—inspiring the creation of three other summer-only art schools in Northern California and its distinguished alumni went on to found the California Society of Etchers and the ArtCenter College of Design in LA (now in Pasadena). \nIn 1915 both men held positions at the Panama-Pacific International Exposition: George was on its central committee as the chief operations officer for the Palace of Horticulture and designed the landscaping for the fair. Frank was in charge of the principal decorative arts exhibitions. \nThe men went on to form life-long friendships with famous artists and Hollywood stars\, including Olivia de Havilland\, Joan Fontaine\, Yehudi Menuhin\, Loie Fuller\, and Ruth St. Denis. Additionally\, during this time the pair cultivated a glamorous life that glittered across two continents. \nIn this talk Richard D. Mohr introduces us to two of the most interesting and admirable men you have never met\, until now. \nAn in-person and virtual presentation by Richard D. Mohr\, author and Professor Emeritus of Philosophy and of the Classics at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign

SUMMARY:Hosting Word For Word
DESCRIPTION:Off the Page\nStaged readings that are the first step in Word for Word’s production process—taking a short story from the page to the stage. Join us for the first of many steps in bringing stories to the stage. \n\n“The Secret Source” by Ben Okri \nDirected by Rotimi Agbabiaka \nTwo young people discover that the water supply has been contaminated with something that is sapping the population’s ability to question those in authority and must evade smugly complacent scientists and hostile fellow citizens in their quest to find a source of true water. \nIn the words of author Ben Okri\, “the story is a slice of reality\, a fable\, a satire\, a cautionary tale\, an immaterial finger writing a warning on a wall\, a cry in the dark\, a good old-fashioned piece of speculative fiction in a tradition as old as ‘Candide’ or the Decameron\, tales that we tell one another in the twilight of strange times.” \nFree Admission – but please RSVP! Space is limited.\n\n  \nOff the Page events are free\, but we do encourage you to make a donation\, either online here or at the venue during the reading. Word For Word humbly suggest $25 for those who can afford it.\n  \n\nWORD FOR WORD Performing Arts Company performs short works of fiction in their entirety\, preserving the author’s voice and honoring her/his intent with exciting visuals and inventive staging.

SUMMARY:InDesign Goes to Prison
DESCRIPTION:Of all the things people in prison might be doing\, chances are learning InDesign doesn’t immediately come to mind. But it did for Michael Santos and\, through Prison Professors the organization he founded\, incarcerated individuals now have an additional\, if unlikely\, pathway to success. \nSantos is passionate about creating a supportive and rehabilitative environment within correctional facilities. By focusing on the acquisition of practical skills\, he and his organization provide a sense of purpose and direction for incarcerated individuals. Engaging in creative pursuits like graphic design serve as a positive outlet for self-expression\, fostering a sense of accomplishment and boosting self-esteem. \nEquipping incarcerated individuals with InDesign skills enhances their prospects for successful reintegration into society. By developing a portfolio of their work\, they can showcase their talent and skills to potential employers. But since former prisoners might not immediately find willing employers\, InDesign also opens an income opportunity while working from home. \nThrough graphic design\, incarcerated individuals can not only learn how to use visuals to communicate ideas but also to write more effectively. With these marketable skills\, individuals who have paid their debt to society are better positioned to secure employment\, reduce recidivism rates\, and become contributing members of their communities. \nYou will learn: \n\n\nWhat InDesign skills are taught to people in prison. \n\n\nSteps we can take with InDesign to lower intergenerational cycles of recidivism. \n\n\nReal-life examples of formerly incarcerated people who have made good through InDesign. \n\n\nHow the graphic design community can make a bigger impact on the lives of people in prison. \n\n\nWhy mass incarceration represents one of the greatest social injustices of our time. \n\n\nPathways to bringing courses into jails and prisons across America.

The idea was partly inspired by an active peer group currently hosted by the Society of Authors (https://www.societyofauthors.org/Groups/Authors-Disabilities-Illnesses-Network). \nGroup agreements that will be open for discussion at the start of the chat:\n* Disclosure (of illness/disability/etc.) is welcome. Disclosure is not required.\n* There are no requirements. We participate (or not) in the ways that work for us.\n* We take care of ourselves. Stretch\, eat\, drink\, take a break\, etc.\n* We can’t be articulate all the time. We give each other the benefit of the doubt and ask questions.\n* We keep confidentiality: Learning goes\, stories stay. \nThe online chat this Thursday will have an open agenda\, loosely focused on work-life: How do we define\, handle\, and sustain our work as editors. What kinds of projects are a good fit? How do we obtain enough but not too much work (if that is even possible in editing!)? What have we learned and what can we learn from each other? \nThis event is free to attend and open to all editors.

SUMMARY:From Bookcase to Bender Room\, and Beyond: Approaching the Centennial of Rare Book Collecting at Stanford
DESCRIPTION:In September of 1926\, Albert M. Bender turned his philanthropic focus on Stanford University Library. As one of the founders of the Book Club of California\, Bender needs no introduction to this audience who will also be familiar with his efforts to establish an appreciation for the book arts at Mills College\, San Francisco Public Library\, and other Bay Area institutions. His offer to assemble\, with the co-operation of friends\, “a collection of notable examples of fine printing to be placed on exhibition in the Stanford Library”\, was immediately embraced by faculty\, students\, and library staff. This gift was the catalyst for the creation in rapid succession of a Typographical Collection\, a Rare Book Room\, a staff position for a Keeper of Rare Books\, and\, by the end of the 1930s\, a Division of Special Collections to manage the library’s growing holdings of rare and distinctive materials. \nOver the decades\, the Stanford collections were reorganized several times and much of the provenance information about this transformative period was lost from the library catalog\, with the foundational gift eventually being dispersed. This presentation explores some notable pre-Bender acquisitions\, once held on a bookcase in the library director’s office\, before introducing the foundational gift of “Finely Printed Books” that started\, and in many ways still shapes\, the collecting program at Stanford. \nAn in-person and virtual presentation by Benjamin Albritton\, Rare Books Curator in the Department of Special Collections at Stanford Libraries

SUMMARY:Hidden Diversity: Lessons from Four Centuries of Javanese Script Heritage
DESCRIPTION:with Aditya Bayu Perdana\nTake a trip to Java\, where four centuries of script\, calligraphy\, and typography leave a treasure trove of inspiration for designers.\nThe archipelago now known as Indonesia is well known for its cultural diversity\, which extends to writing systems. Unfortunately\, everyday use of traditional Indonesian scripts\, including the Javanese script\, has largely been supplanted by the Latin alphabet. One stumbling block in many contemporary efforts to revitalize the script is the lack of appealing visual styles. However\, when we peel back the script beyond monotonous tables endlessly repeated on the internet\, the history of Javanese script shows a rich tradition of visual variation in all sorts of materials—from the calligraphic hands of palace manuscripts to display types used in magazines. \nIn this talk\, Bayu will show how he used archival Javanese materials to expand the typography of Javanese in contemporary usage. See some of the materials he collected over the years and how they were used in some of his typographic works. Hear Bayu’s personal experience working with Javanese and other Indonesian scripts\, and his ongoing efforts to learn and promote design excellence in traditional scripts. \nLetterform Lectures are a public aspect of the Type West postgraduate program. The series is co-presented by the San Francisco Public Library\, where events are free and open to all.

SUMMARY:Teaching the History of the Book: A Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:Teaching the History of the Book (University of Massachusetts Press) is the first collection dedicated to book history pedagogy. Edited by Matteo Pangallo and Emily Todd and featuring contributions from a diverse range of teachers\, scholars\, and practitioners in literature\, language studies\, history\, book arts\, library science\, and archives\, the collection presents a variety of methods for teaching book history both as its own subject and as an approach to other subjects. Each of the 39 chapters describes lessons\, courses\, and programs centered on the latest and best ways of teaching undergraduate and graduate students both about and with book history. \nBeginning with chapters that apply particular pedagogical and critical theories to the book history classroom\, the book then covers effective ways to organize courses devoted to book history\, classroom activities that draw upon book history in other courses\, and an overview of selected print and digital tools for book history classes. Contributors draw on their own experiences in the classroom to bring to life some of the rich possibilities for teaching book history in the twenty-first century. \nA virtual presentation by the editors and selected contributors to Teaching the History of the Book (University of Massachusetts Press\, 2023)
