Art Start Logo
representing creative, positive, community change

Art Start Logo
Salinas, California like lots of places is in need of a renaissance. The image of the city is tarnished by imbalanced reporting of gang violence.
I have recently had the opportunity of working with a group of high schools students - quite creative, quite personable, quite intelligent, and quite determined to rebrand themselves and Salinas.
This group has promoted and curated a city wide high school art show - which is being held at the communtiy college within the city - Hartnell College. They have over and over proved themselves dedicated to the community.
The term artstart is used by many - but it is quite representative of the programs being offered by local non-profit Artistas Unidos - Artists United.
-
New artists can display work
-
Local businesses become venues for displaying local art
-
Youth are mentored and encouraged to development art
-
New audiences are exposed to local art
As a vehicle for positive change, art has a great deal of power. The simple logo above is designed to represent this artistic, community movement.
