Express Newark Website
Express Newark (EN) is an arts incubator that fosters collaboration between community partners and Rutgers University-Newark, functioning as a "third space" where both groups engage on equal terms. The organization reached out to Level for assistance in creating a platform that would encourage collaboration and engagement with both the Newark community and the university, while effectively reflecting their powerful mission. "Level embodies the spirit of collaboration, demonstrated by their thoughtful and attentive approach to their work. We requested their expertise in designing our website, providing them with a thorough style guide and logomark, along with a multifaceted need to engage and captivate a diverse audience—from academics to the general public, from experienced artists to casual enthusiasts, and across different ages, genders, ethnic backgrounds, religions, and viewpoints. The progress we've witnessed has been inspiring and moving! Level grasped the intricacies of our program: they listened attentively, addressed our concerns, and guided our discussions with a clear focus on achieving the best possible outcome. We eagerly anticipated the launch of the site, which is visually impressive, skillfully crafted, innovative, and practical. It uniquely expresses and represents Express Newark and the concept of a ‘third space.'" — Anne Schaper Englot, Co-Director
