AIGA (the Professional Association for Design) hosted the 4th Annual Tenn Show, a competition for Tennessee individuals and businesses working in design and visual communication arts. Attendees included AIGA members, creative professionals, and patrons of the arts. Mayor Karl Dean gave an inspiring presentation that recognized Mary Skinner, Tennessee State Museum, and Anne Brown, The Arts Company, for their advocacy and contributions to the Nashville arts community. The works, judged by AIGA, were all printed and produced between January 1, 2009, and December 31, 2009, and were evaluated for their design approach, including concept and visual elements such as typography, illustration, photography, and information design. Jurors considered how well the works fulfilled their stated communications goals.
AIGA received over 200 entries for the 2010 Tenn Show, 40 of which belonged to the Editorial Design category. The Nashville Arts team was honored to be presented with the Gold Award for Editorial Design in the State of Tennessee! Special kudos to our designer Jeff Stamper.
