PROJECT OVERVIEW

Celebrating the Donors Behind the Sloan Performing Arts Center & Smith Theater

The Sloan Performing Arts Center and Smith Theater stand as lasting contributions to the University of Rochester’s creative community. These spaces, designed for theater, dance, and music, came to life thanks to the generosity of key donors, including Thomas and Linda Sloan, as well as Ed and Andy Lopata Smith.

To honor their impact, I designed two commemorative coffee table books, each tailored to celebrate the vision and generosity of these donors. Through thoughtful layout, typography, and imagery, these books express appreciation while reflecting the energy and purpose of the spaces they helped create.
