Working with Share Our Strength's local event committee, Avantgarde was asked to design the Taste of the Nation invitation and program showcasing Teatro ZinZanni while communicating Share Our Strength's non-profit goals. Our solution was to highlight the amazing and truly marvelous acrobats from the wildly theatrical Teatro Zinzanni show by using mysteriously dark photography combined with the crisp, streamline deco look from the guidelines of Taste of the Nation’s national branding campaign.

Taste of the Nation is the nation's preeminent culinary benefit supporting the fight to end hunger. Each spring, more than 10,000 community leaders come together in more than 65 cities across the United States and Canada to organize one-of-a-kind culinary events. Since 1988, Taste of the Nation events have raised more than $50 million which have supported more than 450 organizations working to end hunger and poverty in the United States and abroad.
