Suwanee’s Summer Porch Jam poster recently received recognition in ‘Sunshine Artist’ magazine in the Best Layout category in its annual poster competition.

According to the city, “The overall design of the poster was inspired by the lighthearted feel of a warm summer day in the south. The pale, sun-drenched yellow evokes memories of cold lemonade on a wraparound porch, with the sky-blue accent punctuating a perfect summer day.”

Summer Porch Jam is the city’s annual throwback summer block party complete with food trucks, beverages, and musicians playing al fresco throughout Old Town Suwanee.

“The aim of the poster is that it reflects the very essence of the event – the longest day of light hours of the year, hot summer days in the south, hanging out on a porch listening to music and enjoying a drink with friends,” said Suwanee Public Information Officer Abby Wilkerson.

‘Sunshine Artist’ provides readers with reviews of everything from fine art fairs, festivals, and events to small craft shows around the country.
