2026 NYC Winter Jazzfest
Art Direction
2026 marked another strong year for NYC Winter Jazzfest, and it was a real pleasure to continue working with the festival as it continues to grow and evolve. We had a strong design team this year, and I’m proud to be part of that collective effort.
Alongside developing multiple templates and design systems, I was responsible for several key visual assets for the festival: the Manhattan and Brooklyn Marathon schedules (both print and interactive web versions), venue maps, and the collage artworks created for each marathon night. Creating cohesive, high-energy collages from diverse artist imagery was one of the most rewarding parts of the process, and they became some of the most recognizable visuals of this year’s festival.
