Town of Forest City
about our partnership
Bringing people together is the heart of what we do. Whether it’s for car shows, Christmas celebrations, or festivals honoring the legacy of Cherry Bounce Whiskey, we help the town organize and market these prominent events. Our Cherry Bounce marketing efforts even won an award at the Main Street Convention.
Additionally, we developed new gateway signage to replace the 70s-era entrance signs that had fallen into disrepair, with the full consent of the Town Council. Collaborating with a local fabricator, we ensured the new signs were built to last, recognizing the town's budget constraints for future replacements or repairs.
By doing things right the first time and working months ahead of the events, we made sure everything was ready and executed flawlessly.
what we achieved
Branding
EXISTING TOWN SEAL
MODIFIED LOGO
Environmental Signage
Let’s talk about gateway signs. You know how charming towns often greet visitors with a friendly, “Y’all come back now, you hear”? We brought that welcoming spirit to the Town of Forest City in a more formal way. Collaborating with a skilled fabricator, we incorporated a wood grain texture to echo the name “Forest City” and paired it with bright white and vivid green lettering. The signs proudly feature their signature tagline, "Small Town, Deep Roots." Eleven of these eye-catching signs now mark the key entry points into this picturesque town, greeting visitors with a touch of local charm.
Marketing
We have had the pleasure of working with the Town of Forest City for over six years assisting the merchant association, town staff, and the Forest City Police Department. We approach each event and department with their unique target market in mind, ensuring success by telling visitors and residents the town’s story before they arrive.
By portraying the feeling and culture of each event or department through graphics, imagery, and fonts, we unify them under the Town's brand. At Artifacturing, we transform brands with tailored creative solutions that resonate with each project's target audience. We are dedicated to making a difference, fostering unity, and enhancing community engagement.
Work Stories
Artifacturing has been instrumental in defining the visual identity for our events. Their creative approach ensures that each event's look is engaging and memorable, giving us the perfect foundation to bring our ideas to life.
