We designed wayfinding signage for the 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 Art Collective, an arts non-profit dedicated to preserving and promoting an inclusive community along the Los Angeles River, that celebrates local artists in a neighborhood-wide arts exhibition.
We were invited to design and fabrication wayfinding signage for each venue to help guide visitors from one exhibit to the next. The artwalk covers over 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 the neighborhood.
For the 2014 Frogtown Artwalk, the designed super graphic wayfinding signage, designed in collaboration with Elly Ward, that were inspired by the late Deborah Sussman. The super-sized signs were CNC milled out of plywood and hand painted.
