Join us to kickoff our weeklong celebration to honor one another and your city’s long history of cranking out incredible creative talent and compelling advertising and marketing for some of the world’s most innovative brands with coffee and connection. 

A night of celebrating typography, culture, and all things Rochester. We’ll kick things off with a pre-party at ROCbrewing, followed by our featured keynote: CULTURE+TYPOGRAPHY in ROCHESTER, sponsored by Butler/Till. Nikki Villagomez will dive deep into the Rochester area’s design choices and how they’ve been inspired by the visual language of our cultural surroundings. 

In this virtual lunch and learn session, local mental health advocate and former CEO of NAMI Rochester, Kristina Mossgraber, will share her thoughts and tips on navigating mental health in a business like ours. Take this time to make space for you.
