Bangor Pride 2023

Graphic Design & Marketing Strategy

In 2024, we led both creative direction and marketing strategy for the event. Our expanded role helped Bangor Pride reach approximately 8,000 attendees while securing more than $7,000 in sponsorships and significant in-kind support — all without spending a dollar on paid promotion.

01 / The Challenge

Bangor Pride needed stronger visibility and a coordinated visual presence across touchpoints. The committee wanted designs that were more accessible while still celebrating the spirit of Pride.

This challenge helped us identify the need for a designated website.

02 / The Process

Designed for partnerships

FULL OF IT developed the theme to align community partners, and social media and partnership plans that amplified reach without paid advertising.

Leveraging previously created brand assets allowed additional opportunities for in-kind donations for merchandise, poster printing, digital promotions, and event materials.

The visual design was based off of 70s-inspired floral motif based on the pride flags and high-contrast messaging. The florals were reused across printed posters, buttons, and community artwork.

The visual system and marketing approach gave Bangor Pride a stronger, more professional presence while remaining deeply community-driven.
