Project: DSO Civic Education Season Brochure

Colorful, elegant brochure to highlight music education

This brochure highlights the programs offered, corporate sponsors, and calendar of events. It was targeted to past and potential program supporters.

I worked closely with the Director of Education to develop this brochure. The goal was an elegant look to underscore the prestige of the program, yet still fun to show the student enjoyment. The DSO has a great photographer so the left side of each program page spread features a large image.

The lines/dots are meant to resemble instrument keys (think flute, clarinet) and to add rhythm to the design. The page widths are progressive, so when the cover is opened the different sections are like a tabbed rainbow.

A few sample spreads are shown here.
