A-Frames

Union & Gardner Commons A-Frames

A-frames are free-standing sandwich board signs placed outside the Union to promote upcoming events. Each side holds a poster-sized ad, giving two views per board. 

We offer A-frames in the front of the Union, in the back of the Union (Union Courtyard), in the front of Gardner Commons, and in the back of Gardner Commons.

Why Are A-Frames Important?

Hard to Miss: A-frames are placed right in students' walking paths outside the Union.

Immediate Visibility: Students make fast decisions on what to engage with. A-frames are a big, bold visual in real time.

Supports Print + Digital Strategy: They reinforce digital ads like Instagram posts or stories by serving as a physical reminder that builds recognition and awareness.

Perfect for Foot-Traffic Awareness: If your event is happening in or near the Union, A-frames are a great way to reach people who are already nearby and likely to attend.

Weather Resistant & Durable: Great for outdoor exposure. They are weighted, sturdy, and won't blow away.

What Events Should Use A-Frames:

• Large-Scale Events (Crimson Nights)
• Food-Related Events (Cooking Demos)
• Performance Events (Open Mics, Drag Shows, etc)
• Giveaways
• Workshops and Information Sessions
• Registration-Based Events
• Awareness Campaigns
• Week-Long or Multi-Day Series
