THE MAKING OF

MAKE IT WORK

Author: Vicky Blake

This year, the Executive Board and the active team of the tgm (Typografische Gesellschaft München) will once again present their ambitious training program, the motto of which is: THE MAKING OF—MAKE IT WORK! A professional mix of up-to-date expert lectures, seminars, and workshops, enriched by excursions, art, and related activities.

Around 1,000 members now belong to the tgm community. Guests also regularly come from neighboring EU countries. Cooperation with, among others, the Typographische Gesellschaft Austria (tga), with weissraum (Designforum Tirol) and Swiss Graphic Designer (sgd) enrich the successful work. All of them use and promote this specific industry platform between print and digital transformation, innovation and creation, business and culture.

With seven dates, the lecture series is once again the highlight of the program. Starting this year, it will be streamed live from Room X in the new Gasteig hp8 in Munich-Sendling, in addition to the press event. This hybrid concept, which has now proved its worth, will enable more interested parties to take part than before. In 2022, the extensive range of seminars and workshops will once again take participants into the practical world of type, typography, accessibility, photography, printing, social media, and consulting. Here, too, attendance in person or online participation is possible. All events can be booked via the website. The fair price performance ratio makes the participation or a membership additionally attractive.

In addition, since this year trainees and students have the opportunity to receive a scholarship for a seminar from the tgm program—completely for free. (Keyword: Seminar of your choice)

Its programs promote dialog and equal discourse, identify relevant trends, and reflect the tgm’s leading role as a guardian of the quality of communication and type culture.
