Awards ceremony: September 29, 2024. This retrospective was published in September 2026.
Featured artwork: Larry Najera’s official 2024 Cherry Blossom Festival commemorative poster.
The International Cherry Blossom Festival’s announcement of its 2024 IFEA honors names Larry Najera / GoRound Media in two creative categories: Gold for Best Commemorative Poster and Bronze for Best TV Promotion for the Nightly Concert Series.
The announcement describes the awards ceremony held September 29, 2024. These two credits connect Larry’s print design and video work with different parts of the festival experience.
Artwork to keep and a reason to come out
A commemorative poster gives a festival a place on someone’s wall after the events are over. A concert promotion has a more immediate job: helping an audience picture the experience and decide to attend.
The named credits recognize both sides of that work. They are part of the festival’s larger awards announcement, which also honors other contributors and programs.
