Tuesday, October 13: Zoom Webinar (Register Here)
12:00–1:00 PM

AIGA Baltimore, Society of Design Arts, and Stevenson University co-host these online events with Tré Seals, founder of Vocal Type Co. With the mission of diversifying design (through type), Seals has crafted a catalog of fonts that tell the stories of various underrepresented races, ethnicities, and genders—from the Women’s Suffrage Movement in Argentina to the Civil Rights Movement in America. And the rest is history.

Fun Fact! We used Tré’s typeface, Bayard, in this year’s Design Month Branding. 

About Tré Seals

Tré is one of those rare individuals that became what he wanted to be as a child. From kindergarten to third grade, he would bounce between drawing, religiously, and practicing writing in cursive until he could get his handwriting to look like the sample sheets.

In the 5th and 6th grades, Seals started his first business. For $3, he would graffiti people’s names on index cards. In high school and college, he would design bead jewelry, Lego™ jewelry, tattoos, posters, and t-shirts.

And at the age of 22, he started a passion project turned font foundry, Vocal Type. With the mission of diversifying design (through type), Seals has crafted a catalog of fonts that tell the stories of various underrepresented races, ethnicities, and genders—from the Women’s Suffrage Movement in Argentina to the Civil Rights Movement in America. And the rest is history.
