"See Yourself at ACES" Environmental Graphics at the 2021 Farm Progress Show
"See Yourself at ACES" was a campaign we launched at Farm Progress Show in Decatur, Illinois in 2021. Environmental graphics included 7' double-sided banners hanging from the rafters of the 100' tent, a die-cut "selfie" sign where participants could place themselves in front of the ACES photo backdrop (including the University of Illinois' Chancellor Jones!), a number of retractable banners for our exhibitor booths, and a large hop-up banner, or "graffiti wall," for our Advancement/Alumni team that allowed former and current students and donors to write what ACES means to them. All banners were able to be reused for later events, and the solid side of the 7' banners are currently displayed throughout the main ACES administrative building to add some life to the white walls.
This campaign was also winner of the 2022 National Agricultural Alumni Development Association (NAADA)'s Publications & Projects Awards, earning second place in the Campaign/Series Division.
