I'm an art director based out of Chicago and can't begin to explain how ecstatic I am for this rare event. The art of typography has always embodied the core reasoning behind my love for design. I hope to take away a lot of this event and am stoked in the opportunity to be there. All the very best -

hi! i'm a belgian designer, and of course all i can say is "save the date for the gala event in question"!!! these kinds of 'exhibitions' are too rare, and they vehicule the fresh air like light fashion which are necessary to all graphic designers and other creators all over the world who are sensible to 'enluminures' and calligraphy in general, and love of letters in particulier... i'm with you with all my heart! (pliiize, don't be too hard with my poor use of english...!)
