<h3>What is experimental typography? This workshop will not answer that question. Instead, it'll offer up space to get your hands dirty and produce playful typographic compositions. Be ready to cut, stick, tape, draw, learn, laugh, sketch and, of course, experiment within a group setting that encourages chaotic beauty and stimulates new-found connections. No experience necessary. All supplies provided.</h3>
