The City of Hamilton

Canada 150 in Hamilton


Celebrating Canada's 150th Birthday, the City of Hamilton held events at three different sites on Canada Day 2017, and hosted Tall Ships Hamilton for two days at Pier 8. Branding for the project used a combination of the official Canada 150 logos and a wave graphic I created to represent the events at Hamilton's waterfront. The project included a 24-page program with three maps, and signage for all three sites.

Tall Ships


As part of the War of 1812 Bicentennial, the City of Hamilton hosted the Tall Ships in the summer of 2013. I created the typography for the event to work with an illustration (ships and waves) by Jenna Rose. Design for the project included a variety of posters, T-shirts, a “passport” cover, a programme cover and page banners, and a site map.

Smith's Knoll Commemoration


2013 marked the anniversary of the Battle of Stoney Creek. A Memorial Parade and Service, and a re-dedication of Battlefield Cemetery at Smith’s Knoll were held to commemorate the Battle and those who fought in it. I designed the keepsake program for these events.
