With the way the economy has been going, I’ve noticed a lot of companies have been cutting back, especially when it comes to pro-bono work. Not Bailey Gardiner. A lot of pro-bono projects allow you work outside the box, and that’s exactly what our creative agency did with Sushi, A Center For the Urban Arts.

By taking on a client like Sushi, it allowed Bailey Gardiner to design a logo, a membership brochure, postcards and more in a way so like nothing else we had ever done before. Francis Floro, the designer working on this project (and who also has a background in the Urban Arts) created pieces that are both BG portfolio and award winning worthy.

On a side note, I am happy to announce that Sushi is having their pre-opening event at their new performance space in the East Village in Downtown San Diego this weekend. After being “homeless” for five seasons, their new sushi space on Eleventh and J is bigger and better than ever. The pre-opening event, Jordan Fuchs Thicket, features a sonic environment in which the audience, wearing headphones, watches dancers and becomes part of the movement itself. It’s about the entanglements of human interactions that come from a glance, an embrace, a memory.

We all are looking forward to a great welcome home season and many more seasons to come!
