Dear Artist

Arlington Arts Festival runs from 8th – 10th July and includes various Arts Events and an Art Trail which covers Arlington, Berwick, Selmeston, Alciston and Wilmington.

We will be producing 5000 x A3 colour programmes (including a map) to promote the event,  as well as displaying posters at other local events and venues in the run up to the festival. We send out press releases to the local press, TV and radio, local free publications with What’s On sections. We also advertise in the local Friday Ad and promote online via social networking sites, online event directories and websites. It does, however, always pay to advertise your own event – there are plenty of other events happening over the Festival weekend so it would be a good idea to swap posters and / or leaflets with others to promote eachother’s events. (I run printing.com @ Accomplice in Hailsham so can arrange printing – let me know if you are interested.)

The Festival Programmes will go to print as soon as possible after 15th April (once the artwork has been put together) and should be ready to distribute from the middle of May. If you would like to have your event / venue open on additional days in the week before or after the festival, you are welcome to include those dates  in your entry. 

Please let me know if you would like me to email you a copy of the festival logo to go on your promotional material or website. I can also produce laminated A3 generic Festival posters for you to display outside your venue for £3 each. Let me know if you would like one.

Please send all information by 15th April to the email below and send a cheque for £15 payable to Arlington Arts Group to Magpie cottage, Hayreed Lane, Wilmington, polegate, BN26 6RR
