Each new edition of the Festival is kicked off by a small yet essential masterpiece — the official poster! A first glimpse into the energy, creativity, and spirit of what’s to come. We’re thrilled to reveal this year’s design, created by Ann Arbor–based graphic designer Susana Castro-Pollard.
We hope it catches your eye — and sparks your imagination!
