Rebranding for a beloved regional arts festival.
Client Need
A long-standing arts festival required a rebrand to reignite excitement and to build recognition with a new audience. In 2024, a secondary logo was commissioned to commemorate the 50th Anniversary.
Brand Concept
Honor the artisans, artists, and makers past and present in all traditional mediums. A brand to attract attention and build public excitement about regional art.
Design Solution / Graphic
The logo mark was designed to acknowledge the Art Brut architecture of the UW-Stevens Point Noel Fine Arts Center where the festival was held for many years. This monogram pays homage to Arts & Crafts practitioners who value quality craftsmanship.
Color Palette
In a nod to the original logo, cyan and magenta were embraced with the addition of a sunflower yellow and a young asparagus green.
The mission of the FOTA is to encourage art awareness, support working artists, and contribute to local art education.
