Gasparilla Festival of the Arts celebrates its 40th Anniversary

May 6, 2010 | Giving Back |

PeakBiety is proud to support the Raymond James Gasparilla Festival of the Arts, one of the nation’s premier fine art and craft festivals. The agency designed the official festival poster and T-shirts incorporating commissioned art by long-time participating festival artists, Larry and Sherry Paulsen of City Art Market.

Through PeakBiety’s creative direction, the art depicts the Festival at the Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park, downtown Tampa and incorporates such important Tampa landmarks as the Tampa Theatre, the new Glazer Children’s Museum and the new Tampa Museum of Art.

The juried show, awarding $75,000 in prize money, returned to its riverside roots on March 6th and 7th, 2010. The festival featured exceptional art from established and emerging artists, live musical entertainment and hands-on art activities for children. Perfect weather and the newly redesigned park location next to Tampa’s brand-spanking-new art museum helped make the show a tremendous success.
