The iMAGINE team is launching a rebrand that will be unveiled in our marketing efforts leading up to and at our 2020 festival in Downtown Greenville.
This new look will exemplify our festival's youthful, lively energy and better showcase our brand personality: passionate, fun, collaborative, family-oriented, and engaging. By making our robot mascot front and center in our new logo, we can tell a story, connect with our younger audiences, and stay true to our Clemson origins.
The save the date, above, represents where this design shift is taking us, and we can't wait to further unveil our brand at our 2020 festival!
