PUBLIC ART COMMISSION
As part of Spring Fling 2010, we are commissioning a one-off public art work at Craigieburn, a Nepalese-themed garden outside Moffat. The selected artist is Calum Stirling. Calum's work encompasses sculpture, video, sound, moving image and architectural invention. Further details are available here.
MARKETING OPPORTUNITY
Spring Fling has now appointed a PR professional to liaise with the Spring Fling Co-ordinator to oversee media coverage of the 2010 event (29 - 31 May 2010). Many thanks to all those who submitted a proposal.
BROCHURE DESIGN
The Spring Fling 2010 brochure is currently being put together by Bremner Design. This year we are hugely excited to be working with award-winning illustrator Nicholas Saunders on the cover. Based in Manchester, Nicholas has worked on a wide range of projects including the recent Harry Potter films 'The Half Blood Prince' and 'The Deathly Hallows'. He was also selected to represent the UK as one of 15 young artists at the 2009 Biennial in Skopje, Macedonia.

Please note that there is no further advertising space available for this year's brochure but general information for advertisers is available here for anyone interested in taking out space in next year's brochure.
