Abbey Road on the River: 20th Anniversary Celebration Book

Challenge

Gary, founder of the world’s largest Beatles-inspired festival, wanted to commemorate its 20th anniversary with a special project. The goal was to create a book that encapsulated two decades of music, memories, and community—while navigating the complexities of storytelling and design for such a nostalgic and personal endeavor.

Solution

We collaborated closely to craft a book that captured the heart of AROTR. The process included:

  • Curating photos and stories from the festival’s history.

  • Designing layouts that balanced nostalgia with vibrant energy.

  • Iterating on ideas to ensure the final product resonated with both Gary and the festival community.

Results

The 20th Anniversary Book became a cherished keepsake, celebrated by both festival-goers and organizers. It perfectly encapsulated the spirit of AROTR, serving as a heartfelt tribute to two decades of peace, love, and Beatles music.
