Letterform Archive Tour for Neon Speaks

Letterform Archive is a nonprofit museum and library preserving and sharing over 100,000 items of graphic design history. In this special guided tour for the Neon Speaks festival with Archive associate curator, Stephen Coles, you’ll get hands-on access to original works and books on signs and lettering from this one-of-a-kind collection. See oversized movie theater banners, original artwork from the Speedball archive, an early-20th-century neon portfolio, exemplars of glass gilding, rare reference books and manuals on sign making, and other artifacts.

The guided tour is 1 hour, with 30 minutes of extra browsing time. Limited to 12 people. Photography encouraged!
