The Society of Typographic Aficionados has launched the fourth annual SOTA Catalyst Award.

The Award is targeted at young people who have created original work in type design, type history, or other areas related to typography.

SOTA Catalyst Award recognizes a person 25 years of age or younger who shows both achievement and future promise in the field of typography.

The competition aims to act as a catalyst in the career of a young person who does not yet have broad exposure in the profession.

Deadline for submissions is March 1, 2013.
