Author's note

Shalom Script, designed by Jonathan Brecher, is a free Hebrew display font with broad, looping strokes and a lively informal stance. Its letters favor rounded turns, tall upright marks, and generous open shapes. Small dots and short bars introduce a crisp decorative counterpoint throughout the design.

It can turn festival posters into lively cultural signage. The buoyant forms also suit music packaging and restaurant branding, especially when a warm, contemporary Hebrew voice is wanted. In editorial artwork, the scattered marks can echo confetti, notation, or illustrations.
