At Laick Design, we love breathing new life into historic landmarks, and starting in January 2025, we’ve taken on an exciting new role—designing all the marquee and event signage for the Penn Theater in Butler, PA!

A Historic Gem, A Modern Touch

The Penn Theater, a beloved icon in downtown Butler, Pennsylvania, has been a cultural hub for decades, hosting films, performances, and community events. As it continues to shine as a centerpiece of entertainment, we’re thrilled to play a part in its visual identity, ensuring that every event announcement and marquee update captures the theater’s rich history while embracing modern design aesthetics.

What We’re Creating

From bold marquee designs that light up Main Street to event posters and signage that promote upcoming performances, our work is helping to shape the theater’s visual presence. Our goal is to make sure that every piece of signage reflects the grandeur and nostalgia of the Penn Theater while also standing out to draw in new audiences.

Blending Tradition with Innovation

We’re balancing vintage-inspired typography and classic aesthetics with contemporary design elements to create signage that feels timeless. Whether it’s a jazz concert, a local theater production, or a film screening, each sign will have a distinctive and polished look that honors the venue’s legacy.

Supporting the Arts in Butler

We’re proud to support the revitalization of the Penn Theater and contribute to Butler’s vibrant arts scene. Keeping a historic venue like this thriving takes collaboration, and we’re honored to work alongside the theater team to enhance its branding and visibility.
