Project Partners: Elysian Valley Arts Collective
2014
Elysian Valley, Los Angeles, CA
We designed wayfinding signage for a community artwalk to help guide visitors from one exhibit to the next.
The Frogtown Artwalk is a bi-yearly community event organized by the Elysian Valley Arts Collective, an arts non-profit dedicated to preserving and promoting an inclusive community along the Los Angeles River. The event celebrates local artists in a neighborhood-wide arts exhibition.
The artwalk covers a half-mile stretch of the Elysian Valley neighborhood where over 30 galleries and installations pop-up in resident garages, driveways, neighborhood studios, and local businesses. The artwalk is a car free event that encourages visitors to walk, bike, or skate through the neighborhood.
We were invited to design and fabricate wayfinding signage for each venue to help guide visitors through the exhibits. The super-graphic wayfinding signage was designed in collaboration with Elly Ward and inspired by the late Deborah Sussman. The super-sized signs were CNC milled out of plywood and hand-painted.
