Philadelphia’s Cultural Treasures is a website, for which the William Penn Foundation serves as the regional funding partner. It aims to attract significant local BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) arts & cultural organizations. This website serves to gather inquiries from our intended viewers & get them to take action to apply into these wonderful multi-year funding opportunities.
Our task was to take inspiration from other arts & cultural grant websites to create something that stand outs to potential candidates. My design team and I really wanted to capture the essence of Philly’s vibrant and expansive arts & cultural community. A challenge was trying to keep the design enticing and bold, while still being respectable, mature, and simple to digest.
I worked alongside our Art Director, Jana Clavel to come up with a variety of visual concepts. Gabbie Nightlinger adapted the final selected design which was one of my iterations and reworked it as neccessary to the website hosting platform.
