Sparkplug Dance redesign
As it shifted its focus from studio classes to teacher training, policy and advocacy, this plucky non-profit needed a new graphic identity and revised information architecture.
The new web site places the organization's direct-service programs in a richer context of research, information and collaboration.

Blue Ribbon also provided site maintenance training and developed a matching Constant Contact newsletter for LCHAY.
