post some art today

advance postcards for coastival 2011. the postcards all feature images by local creatives who will be taking part in the yorkshire coast’s biggest arts festival in february next year including rachel welford (her postcard features the glass panels in our studio/gallery windows), rachel howfield who turned a hotel room into art installation at the last coastival and this haiku by kate evans with photo by mark vesey:


we wanted the cards to be functional so that you could post some art to a friend. there are six to collect but you’ll need to visit several venues around scarborough to find them all…

for the postcard promoting ‘rollercoastival’ – the mini-festival within a festival of creative stuff for kids, we took a photo of a craft activity from last year and superimposed text taken from a ‘rollercoastival radio’ broadcast about ice cream from the first festival. the fonts were chosen based on shop fronts on scarborough’s south shore ice cream parlours and arcades.

the coastival poster/flyer with details of all the headline acts will be launched on tuesday down on the south bay beach.
