To do that efficiently and reach more people, FORM reinvented our online presence. We are routinely complimented on our website which reinforces the realization that our presence is making an impact.”

— Westmoreland Museum of American Art

AND THE SUPPORT STAFF FOR MAINTAINING THE SITE IS EXCELLENT.”

“We are definitely seeing higher event attendance and general awareness of our work. Our favorite part of this new site is the connectivity ... being able to tag stories, events, etc. as "related content" so that each page leads you to additional meaningful content. I met FORM in 2013 and can't say enough about the team. So strategic, responsive, accountable.”
— The Well

People love the colors and the imagery. As we have shown others the identity guide, they are impressed with FORM's work and level of detail.” , Hitchcock Center for Women

“I can never fully express my gratitude to the FORM team. From start to finish they made the process manageable and have been such a delight to work with!
