Every great event tells a story — and Spring Daze is one of those rare ones that feels written by the community itself. Beneath the shady canopy of Bond Park, 170 local artists transform the space into a living gallery of North Carolina’s creativity. What makes it special isn’t just the art, but the spirit — sustainability, connection, and the quiet joy of gathering outdoors.

For its 30th year, I wanted the visual identity to honor that story — to feel both editorial and welcoming, sophisticated yet familiar. The brushstroke became a nod to the makers; the flower, a symbol of renewal. Together, they captured the essence of what makes Spring Daze memorable: a celebration of craft, community, and the beauty of creating something that lasts.
