Site renovation: Minnesota Bluegrass & Old-Time Music Association

The site for Minnesota Bluegrass & Old-Time Music Association (MBOTMA) was beginning to show signs of wear and tear. While information was readily available, and the site was well maintained, it was critically lacking in responsive design and the appearance was dated. 

Dakota Street Design migrated all content to a template-based site on Weebly.com. The clean, bright color scheme and larger formatted graphics offer a much needed contemporary flair to the organization.

Visit: www.minnesotabluegrass.org to tour this wonderful organization's festivals and events. And, if you're so inclined - join MBOTMA to become involved in great bluegrass & old-time music. 

Ties - hand painted by Lane Guyot

Lane Guyot is an artist who paints on black silk ties. His custom designs are sought after, especially by his associates in Masonic circles. His new SquareSpace website offers the opportunity to order custom ties online. More importantly, it gives the viewer insight into his process through vividly colorful galleries. Like his ties, the site is built on a black background, the better to showcase the images. 

Dakota Street Design provided all photography, copywriting, site architecture, and e-commerce setup for the client - plus coordinating business cards: truly a full-service project!

Another beautiful re-build: Ora Itkin

Ora Itkin needed to update her site for responsive design. We recently moved to a musician-friendly platform and migrated content from the old to new. Take a look around, and for a dazzling musical experience, be sure to listen to the music here:
