Parks Alliance of Louisville’s Post

🌳 Beyond the Logo 🌿 Branding goes beyond just visuals—it shapes how our parks and programs are perceived by the community. In the May 2024 issue of PRB+ Magazine, Sophia Young from Waters Edge Aquatic Design dives deep into how branding enhances the credibility of parks and recreation services. We’re also excited to share that one of treasured Board Members, Ameerah Palacios, is featured in the article! 🎉 Palacios serves on the Parks Alliance of Louisville, a Kentucky nonprofit with a mission to drive equitable investment into public parks to elevate the community’s well-being. She says the bold vision of Great Parks for All “is backed up with bold branding. You see the colors that are vibrant and saturate you. The nonprofit delivers on that brand in their engagement in communities that have been underserved by giving them a voice and boldly forging new ground together with community.” When visiting the website for the Parks Alliance of Louisville, it’s clear the visual aspects of the brand generate excitement. The high level of interest is most noticeable in supporters’ t-shirts and bags, which demonstrate brand consistency in their designs. Palacios says it becomes a feeling of “these are parks I would want to visit.” https://hubs.ly/Q02RnwMc0
