Art Directors Club of Tulsa and Philbrook Museum of Art Present
Chip Kidd
USA Today called him the “closest thing to a rock star in the graphic design world” while writer John Updike described his book design as “monstrously ugly.” He’s talented. He’s controversial. He’s designed some of the most well-known book covers on the planet. And he’s coming to ADCT at Philbrook this month.
Heads up. Again.
The meeting’s at Philbrook.
We have limited seating in the main auditorium. It is first-come, first-served.
Overflow seating will be in a room with a live video feed.
No food. Eat before you get there. Cash bar.
ADCT and Philbrook members are free. Non-members are $7.50.
Semi-annual ADCT memberships will be available for $50 at the door.

A celebrated artist, author and book designer living in New York City, Chip has designed over 1,500 book covers including Michael Crichton’s Jurassic Park, Cormac McCarthy’s All the Pretty Horses, David Sedaris’ Naked as well as his own novel, The Cheese Monkeys.
Chip’s work has been featured in Vanity Fair, Eye, Print, Entertainment Weekly, The New Republic, Time, The New York Times, Graphis, New York and ID. And he designs a mean poster. Which he’ll be signing, along with selected books, after the show. Don’t miss it!
