Young Audiences New York
Building on a tradition Young Audiences New York places visual and performing artists in under-resourced New York City public school classrooms.
They sponsor a wide range of residencies, performances, family activities, and hands-on pre-professional workshops at schools and in neighboring communities.
YANY asked us to rethink their identity and communication materials to better reflect their approach — informative, exciting, inclusive, instructive, and inspirational.
It's simple, it's classic, and it has equity; We don't believe in change for the sake of change. Our only action was to refine the typography, which had been modified a number of times over the years.
Artwork created by students would be incorporated into the collages.
We created a style guide showing how to build the individual “A” collages and insert student-generated artwork.
This results in an identity that is never exactly the same, but one in which all pieces feel as if they are coming from the same place.
