Austin Lyric Opera

The ALO is an excellent example of how easy it is to create and project a unique branded image with some simple changes to Venture’s site templates.

Adding a dedicated space for a secondary logo, a trio of left hand navigation tabs, a custom search bar, some deep shadowing along container edges, and a brilliant background image creates a clean, classic, and professional image that still invites users to come in and get comfy.

  • Planning: Entirely Redesigned site map and navigation menu
  • Content: content and event population; new information architecture, and integration with third party box office along with a substantial amount of new and revised content

Client Testimonial

With Venture, Drew has built a phenomenal system on top of today’s best content management solution: WordPress. When I was looking to overhaul the Austin Lyric Opera website, I had reached out to several agencies but none could remotely match the thoughtfulness and expertise that Drew brings. It is clear that Venture is built with a deep understanding of the performing arts and online user experiences. Drew guided the overhaul to completion in record time and below budget at less than half the cost of other proposals. Our online ticket sales have doubled since. Highly recommended.
