Blues Fest T-shirt Design Winner Announced
Posted: Saturday, October 06, 2012
As in years past, the festival partnered with Creative Allies to hold a t-shirt design contest. More than 60 images from designers around the world were submitted. The winner was picked by staff of the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Foundation – the annual vote to pick a winner has become a tradition among the office staff.
Upon learning that his design was picked as the winner, Naldo sent us this greeting via email:
“My name is Naldo Adrian from Jakarta, Indonesia. I love art and design very much, and music as well - like rock, jazz and blues. My favorite blues band is Gugun Blues Shelter from Indonesia. Maybe you can invite them to the festival someday.”
Sure thing, Naldo.
He added:
“By the way the festival will be held on October 12, right? That's my birthday. I guess this is my very special birthday present.”
How awesome is that?
Naldo also said:
“Wish I could go there, but I can't abandon my work here. Thank you for this great honor, and I hope the best for the show.”
Thank you, Naldo. We love your design.
Winning designs from overseas are becoming another tradition for the Blues & BBQ Festival. Last year’s winner was Marco Gambella, aka Ranboh, who lives in Padua, Italy.
