So, the word is that Hotbox are clear to go. This is great news for us, and I look forward to developing our site with them.
The latest big news for us is that we have a logo now!
I conceived the art weekend as a multi event weekend with a wide range of appeal, and the term ‘art market’ didn’t really cut the mustard.
By throwing a design tender out to our local art college at Winchester, we provided the graphic students with a real world brief, the chance to earn some prize dosh, and reinforced our working partnerships with the college.
We had some good entries but the one that caught our eye provided not only a logo, but a full weekend identity and title.
Peter Whiddon gave us ’48’ (as in hours in the weekend) and we like it. Hotbox have our holding page up and ready:
and the first of our advertising flyers will be hitting the printers soon. Things are picking up…
Now it’s time to write some funding applications. Not so much fun there, and I always struggle with these bits. If you have a cure-all tip for taking the pain away in filling forms I will gladly part with the little cash I have.
