"Open call for submissions" uses the typeface Thorowgood Grotesque by Commercial Type.

For the typeface "Anyone can participate!", I have reasons to believe this is a custom type by Jack Halten Fahnestock. He is the creator of the Post-Contact project. Separately, he has created a calligraphic typeface based on his school's seal called RISD Serif Roman Italic (p.19).

If you were to compare two typefaces on top of each other, you can tell that the silhoeuttes are very similar, and have been manipulated to fit closer to the likes of Apple Chancery.
