The Pancakes and Booze Art Show

This Saturday, February 23rd, 2019, an event for local artists will be happening in the Burgh. The Pancakes and Booze Art Show is an event that goes on all year round in more than 35 cities around the country. The focus of this event is to give local artists a space to show their art, even if they are not 'famous' yet. One of the mottos of this event is "Why does it take dying to gain recognition in the art world?" This pop-up art show is celebrating its 10th year anniversary. The main idea of this event is to bring local artists to show their art providing the attendees 'all you can eat' pancakes and alcohol. This is a good way of attracting people and making them stay while they discover new artisans and new art.

 The ad portrays every detail of this event. It explains all of the activities that will go on during the event like live art, body painting, live performances, free pancakes, and booze. The pictures of pancakes in the back with the 'syrup' that is actually alcohol explain the idea of the event. Along with the colors that are very bright and catches the viewers' attention. It also provides time, place, date, cost and where.
The ad is nice and I like it, but the only problem I see is that it doesn't really promote an art show, it promotes the pancakes and the booze. Since the main idea of this event is to bring a space to local artists to show their art, they shouldn't promote as much the pancakes and booze, it should be more like The Art and Pancakes. This way the viewer will understand right away that it is an art show, not a party where you have pancakes while you drink.
