Type Carousel - 15th Anniversary Workshop

Event Image
Students participate in the type carousel event in 2025.

Presented by RIT graphic design faculty Carol Fillip and Lorrie Frear, with special guest Steve Matteson, Melbert B. Cary Professor in Graphic Arts

Type Carousel, celebrating 15 years as an experiential workshop at RIT, is open to anyone at the university! It takes the form of a carousel set of exercises, where participants move in groups from station to station in 20-minute intervals until they have completed the circuit. While at the stations, called terminals (for associations to typography), participants work together with the assistance of a terminal guide to experience various pre-digital or analogue typographic techniques and processes to learn about all things type!

Stop by the workshop from 12-2 p.m. Friday. Feb. 27, in the SHED foundations classroom (2300).
