The Riverwalk vs. the Nile

SAMA may be miles (both figuratively and literally) from Egypt, but come October 24th, the museum on the banks of the San Antonio River will be hosting its own “Party on the Nile,” inaugurating a series called “SAMA Soirées” targeted toward the young professional crowd.

Toolbox was excited to design both the SAMA Soirées logo and illustrate a Walk Like an Egyptian poster. Our creative director Paul Soupiset created a sophisticated yet accessible invitation aesthetic for San Antonio’s young urban and suburbanites.

Unlike most ticketed events in the upscale art & culture category, which can set you back a Benjamin, SAMA Soirées are democratically priced at a quarter of that, with the hopes that our city’s young, cultural creatives will come and appreciate art.

The event will feature innovative catering by San Antonio newcomer Pasha Mediterranean, music by DJ Jester the Filipino Fist (fresh off his Austin City Limit post-party diggs), and drinks including a signature SAMA Soirée Martini, plus entertainment including henna tattoos, scavenger hunts through the galleries, and Egyptian makeovers. Something for everyone.... Over 21 and under 40...ish... Or at least a young-professional-at-heart.
