Will Carter - Man of Letters Exhibition 2022

until Sunday 14 December 2022 

Presented by the Lettering Arts Trust at the Robert Cripps Gallery of the New Library at Magdalene College

Honorary Fellow of Magdalene College, Will Carter OBE (1977), was a master craftsman - printer, typographer, calligrapher, carver of wood and slate - for whom good design was 'a matter of seeing the simplest way of doing something, which is usually the best'.

The exhibition, co-curated by lettering artist and Guild member, Eric Marland, shows examples of Carter’s skill as a printer, typographer and font designer; hand-cut letters rendered in stone and wood; book jacket designer, and the well-worn tools he used to create signs, plaques and more personal artefacts.

Exhibition opening hours are Monday to Thursday, 10am - 12pm, and 2pm - 4pm.
