I was tasked with developing a local 826 education / tutoring store for the state of New Orleans. Leaning into the scope of the city’s mysticism with a sweet exterior by introducing the story of MaMa Nola’s! A learning education center for tutoring and writing where kids can fall into the mystical charm and uncover the magic of fundemental reading.

To the world, she runs a simple bakery, but in reality, her recipes are a form of enchantment, and she knows how to cast a delicious spell or two. Developing her character was very fun, as she is designed to be a captivating figure whom children can easily understand and connect with.
826 New Orleans promotional event.
In partnership with MaMa Nola and a popular local bakery, 826 NO presents a special event where children create their own delicious treats inspired by the fairytale they are reading. This engaging activity simultaneously builds phonics and reading skills while enhancing fine motor development.
The New Orleans staple of education!
When creating the store for 826 New Orleans, I wanted the store to show the mystcial / culutral character of its home base. Centering on the repeating theme of magic and allure.
Represent New Orleans the right way!
When making the swag / merchandise for the store I really wanted to lean into a play on words and a re-invention of everyday items we use by expanding on the magic of the childs imagination.
Process
When going through the iteration process, this project was the first instance where I had to learn what it meant to “iterate.” To do something over and over again in order to see the finished result of a project and not only have one idea be the end-all-be all. 826 Nola will forever be my favorite student project ever!
