ATypI Paris Off Program

A tasting of free and low-cost studio tours, private visits, exhibitions, fairs, and more!

Sign up for your personalized typographic adventure.

During the excitement of “typography week” in Paris, ATypI 2023 attendees will have a unique opportunity to savor the delights of special access to the best typographic studios in the city and get a curator’s look at the most significant and oldest library in France and central Europe. Check out the off program that ATypI and our network of French partners and the Paris type community are proposing to you as that extra soupçon of flavor during your menu of conference offerings.

It’s all happening May 9–14. You may sign on for more than one of these off-program activities, but space is very limited. Please don’t sign up if you’re not able to show up.

The following activities are available at no cost or for a minimal charge in Euros to ATypI in-person conference attendees. You must pre-register in order to participate in these activities. Check out the available dates and times and sign up using this Google form.
