TypeCon is the annual SOTA conference held in a different host city each summer. This summer, for our tenth anniversary, SOTA takes TypeCon to our hometown of Buffalo, New York. The "Queen City" is full of amazing architecture, art galleries and museums galore, hot indie music (in bars that stay open until 4 am), and regional delights like the Roycroft campus and the Cary Collection at RIT. And let's not forget about those glorious Niagara Falls! Mark your calendar for July 15-20, 2008, and join us for the typographic event of the year. Visit the TypeCon website, where you can get all the scoop on this great conference. Be sure to subscribe to the TypeCon email newsletter and get announcements first!

TypeCon2005 took place at Parsons School of Design in New York, July 20-24, 2005, and was presented by SOTA with the Type Directors Club, in association with the American Printing History Association and Typophile.
