2009 Satchmo SummerFest Commemorative Poster

Satchmo Festival

Over its nine year history, Satchmo SummerFest has continued to pay tribute to the life, legacy and music of Louis 'Satchmo' Armstrong through inspiring seminars from Jazz historians, captivating performances by modern day jazz greats, and artwork inspired by his tradition. The same holds true for the 2009 Satchmo SummerFest Poster.

Stuart South, native New Orleanian, captures the glow and brilliance of Satchmo's spirit within the 9th Annual Satchmo SummerFest poster. A Jackson Square artist, South, studied fine art at UNO and Tulane University and has been painting since his early teens. His work is easily recognized by its joyful compositions that celebrate pop culture and the world around him.

When asked about his contribution to Satchmo SummerFest, South said, "Working on the Satchmo (SummerFest) poster was one of the greatest honors of my life. Louis Armstrong was an amazing and inspirational figure for all time. In a way we all grew up with Satchmo. I can remember listening to Armstrong with my grandmother when I was five, and dancing in the living room to that rough old tender voice of his and now as an adult it amazes me how this man from another era can touch me so deeply simply by telling me what a wonderful world I live in, and what a wonderful life it is." 2009 festival prints can be purchased at Satchmo SummerFest from July 30 - August 2 and at www.fqfi.org/shop.
