Membership is determined by the consistent quality and originality of work, as well as by training and previous experience. To be elected as a Full Member of Letter Exchange, applicants must present their work to our executive committee.
Associate Membership and Student Membership are also available and open to anyone with an interest in the lettering arts be they individuals or institutions.
This membership is restricted to the very best of those practising in the lettering arts and crafts. It is achieved by election through an executive committee made up of specialists in all aspects of the lettering arts and crafts and typographical design. Applicants’ work has to be of a professional standard in both design and execution. Experimental and explorative work are supported. Twelve months should have elapsed since leaving a college or apprenticeship. The committee will discuss the work fully and selection is by general consensus.
