There are no links to see upcoming events or access the archive collections. Also, the blue link blocks are easily missed or accidentally tapped because they're too small.
I added a horizontal carousel to showcase upcoming events and archive collections on the homepage. Additionally, I strengthed the visual hiearchy of the link blocks by wrapping them in larger containers.
Vague wording for block links such as "Watch & Listen Online" and "LA Rebellion" made it confusing for users to predict what would happen once they clicked on a link.
Restructuring the information architecture by grouping similar content by commonality while simplifying the site's wording lowers our users' cognitive load, thus improving usability.
