Cricket Press!

@cricketpress / cricketpress.tumblr.com

Brian and Sara Turner have been making posters for nearly a decade. In 2003, they started Cricket Press from a tiny studio in their home of Lexington, KY. Since then, they have created gig posters for hundreds of bands ranging from indie-rock to free-jazz, bluegrass to punk; as well as promotional work for events both local and national. Together they have created their own unique and quirky vision of the world, translating their characteristic illustrations through the hand-printed processes of letterpress and screen-printing. When they’re not ruining their clothes slinging ink on posters, Cricket Press also spends a good deal of time on numerous design and illustration projects, as well as making various hand-printed goods and ephemera. www.cricket-press.com

Central Kentucky has great opportunities for birding with over 350 documented species. Entrance to the festival will be FREE and open to the public. Our goals for this festival are to expose as many as possible to the hobby of bird watching and to educate on topics of wildlife and conservation.

Our art-print celebrating the upcoming Total Solar Eclipse has FREE SHIPPING in our Etsy shop!

The total solar eclipse will be visible along a narrow track stretching from Texas to Maine on April 8, 2024.

If you've never seen a solar eclipse IN TOTALITY (this part makes a difference) and you have the means…you should try to catch this one! We had the GREAT fortune of viewing the 2017 total solar eclipse, in Kentucky, during perfect weather, on a farm…and it was pure magic. We do have plans to view the 2024 eclipse and wanted to make a small memento for the event.

NEW can design for our pals at West Sixth Brewing!

Hop Static IPA Ch.10

An IPA for those West Coast lovers! Hop Static 10 is brewed and dry hopped with Mosaic, Strata and Citra hops -- you'll get tropical fruit, citrus immediately, followed by a slightly dank and balanced finish with tons of resin, stone fruit and a little dryness. It's really good, y'all!

Failed logo design. I was super happy with it.

But the clients could not come to a decision on what they ultimately wanted.
