Artwork competition

Well it’s all very exciting – the program is out, the website is live – and the compliments (and the tickets!) are coming thick and fast. You like us!  

Our box office is going great guns and already some sell outs. Which ones? Check out our website to keep up to date. Also just posted on our website is a video of festival director, Rosemary Cameron, talking about the 2009 program. A first for us, and good fun.

Not much to report however of much interest; the climatic week of the program launch now gives way to the mundanity of actually getting the festival to happen! What can I say?  

Well, I’m working with a local artist on creating fabulous artwork  that will bring the Fed Square plaza to life.  (Well of course, she’s doing the artwork, I’m just, um, watching).  That’s not mundane, and is great fun.  You’re all going to enjoy playing with it too.

Question: what colour should it be?  Now there’s a question when you don’t know what I’m talking about.  But yes, there’s artwork. And we need to decide on a colour for part of it.  What colour should it be?  Take a punt and let me know.  No clues except remember that it’s going to be in Federation Square plaza.  Book to the person who picks the winning colour.  Pick a colour, any colour.

Now, back to the Tour de France for me. Go Cadell!
