The UPAF Ride for the Arts, presented by Miller Lite, is an iconic and cherished Milwaukee event and therefore calls for artwork that matches. Our partners at EPIC Creative do an exceptional job each year making sure that our posters and shirts are unique, fun and quintessentially Milwaukee. Get a behind the scenes look at the creative process behind the 2024 artwork and stay tuned for what is to come in 2025!
One of the most exciting projects we undertake as an agency is designing the United Performing Arts Fund's annual Ride for the Arts poster. This year, we wanted to create a design that was simple, whimsical, and dynamic—drawing inspiration from classic French racing posters. We refreshed the look with a vibrant color palette and a flat graphic style. Check out an insider's perspective on our creative process here ? https://bit.ly/4gMdWJF
