SUMMARY:Wood Type Use\, History\, and Identification with James Grieshaber
DESCRIPTION:Title: Wood Type Use\, History\, and Identification lecture and workshop\, 1 pm\nEvent leader: James Grieshaber\nCost: Free with Museum admission\nDate: Saturday March 15\nStart time: 1 pm \nThis lecture will cover aspects of wood type history\, as seen through the lens of the historic Wood Type Pattern Library of Virgin Wood Type. James Grieshaber\, who wrote The Virgin Wood Type Bible\, is a\nnoted type historian and type designer who will also speak to some of the uses of wood type printing historic broadsides. He will be in residence at the Museum of Printing for a week prior to the lecture helping identify and organize the museum’s wood type collection\, and will be presenting on what he’s found there. \nVirgin Wood Type produces twentieth-century wood fonts using original patterns from historic wood type manufacturers\, as well as developing revivals of Victorian-era wood type classics. They also issue new designs from contemporary type designers\, produced in the traditional manner\, using a vintage pantograph router\, originally owned by American Wood Type Mfg. Co. \nThe Virgin Wood Type Bible enables the reader to gain insight into the history of\, and be able to identify\, over 500 historic wood type designs. To accomplish this\, Grieshaber has located and researched all of the known printed catalogs from the makers\, as well as considered physical clues on the over 300 fonts represented in the Virgin Wood Type Pattern Library. These include patterns from American\, Acme\, Allied\, Empire\, and some from Stephenson\, Blake who had a US distribution agreement with American Wood Type. Also included are new fonts manufactured by Virgin Wood Type\, designed by the Grieshaber and others\, which often draw on historical models. \nJames Grieshaber has been a designer for newspaper and advertising agencies\, and a type designer for P22 Type Foundry\, Typeco\, and others. James is a graduate of Rochester Institute of Technology and has taught Typography at RIT. While working as a wood type designer and cutter for Virgin Wood Type\, Grieshaber cleaned\, cataloged\, and identified all the historic wood type patterns in their collection\, which led him to create this book. \nFunding by the Massachusetts Office of Travel and Tourism (MOTT) Massachusetts 250 Grant Program. Supporting the commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution with projects that highlight historic themes of revolution and independence\, celebrate significant “firsts” in Massachusetts history\, or take a creative or innovative approach to commemorating the state’s past 250 years.

SUMMARY:Project STEP
DESCRIPTION:Experience the extraordinary talent of Project STEP’s young musicians! This nationally acclaimed program is helping to reshape Boston’s classical music environment by reflecting the racial and ethnic diversities of its surrounding communities. Join us for an inspiring performance and be part of their journey toward a more inclusive\, diverse musical future. \n“[Project STEP] is an educational gem…”\n– BSO Violinist Victor Romanul for Strings magazine \nABOUT THE ARTISTS \nProject STEP is a national award-winning music program that offers the very best classical music education for young students in Boston and surrounding areas. Not only does Project STEP’s programs harbor a creative and safe learning environment\, they advocate for a future where the classical music profession reflects the racial and ethnic diversities of our surrounding communities. Project STEP amplifies the stories and voices of young musicians of color\, providing space within the greater Boston community for their talent to be recognized. Project STEP students inspire us all to be better and to do more\, and your support is the catalyst for their success. \nWhile many educational programs in New England offer music training for children\, they do not match Project STEP’s comprehensive package of high-quality long-term training\, support services\, and scholarships intended specifically for children from backgrounds underrepresented in classical music. Our students are able to break through socio-economic barriers to become excellent musicians\, creative and confident students\, and successful young adults. Spending up to 12 years in Project STEP\, our students are challenged to achieve and maintain high levels of musicianship. The perseverance\, social and leadership skills\, self-discipline\, confidence\, problem solving skills\, and strong work ethic they develop in the process prove to be invaluable in their future musical and non-musical pursuits. As students in Project STEP\, our students gain deep skills\, as well as learning and career opportunities that make them role models and mentors in their families and communities. \nDID YOU KNOW: \nAfrican American and Black musicians account for only 1.2% of our nation’s orchestras and Latinx musicians make up only 1.6%\, according to the League of American Orchestras (2016).\nProject STEP has been advocating for equity and inclusion in the arts and classical music field for 40 years.\n100 % of Project STEP graduates have gone on to college or conservatory.\nApproximately 60% of Project STEP students go into the music profession. \nTickets: Free\, reservations encouraged.
