TypeCon2009: Rhythm

Grand Hyatt Atlanta at Buckhead
Atlanta, Georgia

presented by The Society of Typographic Aficionados (SOTA)

TypeCon2009 will be held this July in an amazing city - Atlanta, Georgia. TypeCon makes its first foray into the Deep South, and it's going to be the hottest design event of the season! We're working on a week-long community-wide celebration of type and design. Atlanta is known for its thriving design, publishing, broadcast, and high-tech sectors, world-class cultural organizations, myriad design and technology education programs, and some of the finest restaurants and entertainment venues in North America.

Atlanta is a thriving city full of friendly people who love the arts. Its major airport makes traveling to Atlanta incredibly easy. The community at large is wholeheartedly participating in TypeCon2009. We are working with a variety of local educational institutions and cultural organizations from the region and beyond in presenting TypeCon2009.

The main conference will take place at the gorgeous Grand Hyatt Atlanta, located in the thriving Buckhead area. The Grand Hyatt will be a beautiful and comfortable venue for our conference. We've secured an terrific rate of $175 per night for single and double rooms at the conference hotel - a great bargain for this wonderful hotel in a prime location. Complete reservations information and hotel details will be available shortly.

This year's TypeCon will take you to more unique places than ever before as we visit museums, art galleries, schools, letterpress studios, and cultural centers for our varied activities. With dozens of workshops, presentations, special events, and exhibitions in the works, TypeCon2009 promises a typographic adventure you can't miss!
