LMG Creates & Unveils New Logo and Branding Strategy for Danbury-Based Outdoor Amphitheater

Newtown, CT-- June 21, 2010-Leverage Marketing Group, a leading Connecticut-based integrated communications agency, recently created a new logo and brand identity for the Ives Concert Park in Danbury, Connecticut. 

Leverage Marketing Group led the venue’s rebranding effort by creating a new logo, managing a range of graphics and design work, including revamping the Ives Concert Park website, banners, billboard signage and printed programs for events. The Ives stage has been graced by the likes of Bob Dylan and Paul Simon in the past, and this summer the venue will host numerous popular acts, including Willie Nelson, Moody Blues and Garrison Keill or as well as a Fine Arts and Family Series and many Cultural Arts Festivals.

“We were honored to help create a new brand identity for Ives Concert Park,” said Tom Marks, CEO and General Manager, Leverage Marketing Group. “It’s a unique venue, and there’s a lot of energy and excitement surrounding the organization that we were able to tap into,” added Marks.                                                              

Ives Concert Park is a world class performing arts center that features an outdoor amphitheater and is situated on forty wooded acres with a pond, gardens and public hiking trails in Danbury, Connecticut.  Ives hosts a variety of world-renowned international, national, regional and local artists and is a truly unique arts experience in harmony with a natural environment. 

“As a venue that is located on the campus of Western Connecticut State University in a thriving city, it’s important that we further engage the local population with a new branding approach,” said Phyllis Cortese, Executive Director, Charles Ives Authority for the Performing Arts. “Our new logo is an exciting tool that encourages people to see what new performers will be headlining at Ives.
