Nonprofit Design for State of Tennessee
The Tennessee Arts Commission supports a variety of arts activities and opportunities for artists and arts organizations, benefiting citizens and schools across the community. The Commission plays a vital role in creating projects that reflect the place and identity of the community, fostering cultural heritage and public interest in the arts.
We were honored to play a role in promoting the arts in the State of Tennessee. We re-designed 4 websites, totally revamping the structure and applying new branding elements across the board.
Through diverse funding opportunities, the Commission encourages participation in arts activities, enhancing educational experiences and promoting excellence in artistic expression. By investing in arts education and community engagement, the Tennessee Arts Commission ensures that all citizens have access to the arts, enriching the cultural fabric of the state.
Accessibility Design & Easy Navigation
Finding what you are looking for on a website with tons of resources shouldn't be a challenge. We were intentional about building a menu system that was simplified and quickly presents all the links. Font sizing options and other accessibility needs were made a priority as well.
Branding Refresh
We evaluated the existing brand elements and worked to strengthen the brand through more consistent use of colors schemes, patterns and content display.
A Solution for Multiple Websites
The Tennessee Arts Commission operates many different programs and websites, each with thousands of visitors. Our goal was to create a fresh look for their existing brand and to develop a consistent new appearance for their websites. Tennesseans can consult the sites to find updates about grants and learn about art events in the state.
Tennessee Arts Education Website
The Arts Education website is geared towards promoting the arts in Tennessee. The website houses many resources for the arts and has section dedicated to teaching artists which includes the ability to search and filter teachers based on various criteria.

The Tennessee Folklife website shares the same visual aesthetic as the other websites, but with a focus more on multimedia content. This website design makes use of many galleries to showcase art created by local Tennesseans.
