SCENE & SAVOR
Publication Design: Senior Capstone | Spring 2026
Scene & Savor is a seasonal publication focused on exploring Cincinnati theater and dining. Young adults active in Cincinnati’s social scene don’t consider live theater when planning activities due to a lack of awareness and misconceptions about affordability and relevance, reinforcing a generational divide in engagement with the arts. Scene & Savor aims to create excitement around the performing arts and transform a night out into a shared cultural experience by pairing Cincinnati theater events with dining recommendations.
