2006 Brunswick Stew Festival

7th Annual Brunswick Stew Festival

17th Street Farmers’ Market | Richmond, Virginia

The 2006 Brunswick Stew Festival was the 7th annual event of its kind and my first foray into designing event media for the 17th Street Farmers’ Market in Shockoe Bottom (Richmond, Virginia). That year I designed a poster, a matching flyer (double-sided), and a set of collectible postcards. I did a photoshoot for all of the images used on the promotional materials. To make the content more intimate, I chose to showcase one of our local farmers’ market vendor’s sweet, hand-carved wooden chicken statuettes and his detailed dioramas featuring those wooden chickens.

There are subtle details in the imagery to allude to the fact that it was the 7th Annual Brunswick Stew Festival, as well as a little fun humor to add an extra element of joy to the event.
