New Orleans Jazz Crawl

Jazz Crawl for Charity

The Jazz Crawl for Charity celebrates the artistic culture and festive traditions of New Orleans as a tribute to loved ones not with us anymore. The event kicks off by randomly crowning the year’s 'Royal Court of the Krewe'. The celebration then continues with a traditional New Orleans Second Line parade from spot to spot downtown with 'Parade Marshals' leading a live brass band and the rest of the 'Krewe' with energetic dancing and the waving of festive parasols and feathered fans.

The event is more than just an epic downtown party, it's an education in disguise. Each location features cultural exchange presentations that share the history and festive traditions of New Orleans. It also supports a great cause as instruments are donated to under privileged music students in memory of loved ones with brass engravings and certificates. The attention of the festivities set the stage to showcase and support local businesses, music programs, and a wide range of artists.

We'd like to have a poster designed that will excite and inform people about the event by portraying the festive nature of Social Aid & Pleasure Clubs and a New Orleans Second Line Brass Parade along with local features of Charleston, SC:

Social Aid & Pleasure Clubs: Dancing, Parasols, Feathered Fans

New Orleans Second Line Brass Parade: Trumpet, Trombone, Saxophone, Snare Drum, Bass Drum, and Tuba leading a krewe of people dancing with parasols along with a 'Second Line Grand Marshal' with a stetson hat and feathered fans.

Charleston Features: Ravenel Bridge, Lantern Street Lights, Palmetto Tree & Moon (SC state flag).

I have included a handful of advertising, branding, and design assets we've been using as well as some photos of Second Line parades. If possible I'd prefer to have the second line parade depicted graphically or with illustrations as opposed to using photos. I have included graphical depictions and illustrations of New Orleans second line parades that I have found online.

I can include illustrator and/or photoshop files if requested.

Having a space for sponsor logos would be good if possible.
