Primarium: A Case for Cursive traces the global evolution of cursive writing. Through historical references, textbooks and contemporary typographic works, the exhibition explores how cursive has adapted to changes in culture, technology and education.
Rather than framing it as a dying art, Primarium presents cursive as a living, evolving practice—one in which digital tools become collaborators in keeping its cultural, educational and cognitive relevance alive.
July 5–October 31, HMCT Gallery
Opening reception: Thursday, July 3, 6:30–9:30 p.m.

Wednesday, July 2, 7–8 p.m., HMCT Gallery
