WEBSITE + PHOTO CREDITS
Website Design
pH Collective
pH Collective is incredible. We cannot say enough about their workflow, responsiveness, empathic communication, professionalism, and artistry. We are so grateful for their creative and strategic partnership and seeing this website through from head to tail!
Invertigo Dance Theatre
Our Programs & Partnerships Director K. Bradford led the charge in our website process. We deeply appreciate their vision, poetic framing, and hard work to bring forth our new online manifestation.
Thank you also to Laura Karlin, Kelsey Ang, Rachel Whiting, Rosa Navarrete and Glyn Gray for bringing energy, nitty-gritty details, and creative insight to the website process.
Taproot
For the lovely new rebranding and set of logos for Invertigo and its programs. Les Guttman (Account Director), Tina Dahl (Project Manager), Mary Woodworth (Marketing Manager) and Adam King (Graphic Designer) all donated their time and brought incredible care, patience, creative power, and enthusiasm to the process.
We would like to pause and take a moment to honor the life and big energy of Les Guttman, who is greatly missed. We hope and believe he would have been very proud to see this project come to fruition.
