CHRISTMAS IN COLCHESTER #bestbyfar

CHRISTMAS TOOLKIT FOR YOU

This year we think it would be great for the town centre to join up and approach the festive season together. Marketing the town by presenting a united offering with consistent branding and messages is a great place to start! This toolkit will provide you with the guidelines to our Christmas branding and offer you the opportunity to join in. Please download and see what you can do to join us. If you have any questions, please contact Selina by using selina@ourcolchester.co.uk or call her on 07882057847.

 

If you do decide to use this branding toolkit, please let us know so we can share this on social media and get some great images to add to our collection.

STARS Project this Christmas

A dazzling community star project is set to light up Colchester this Christmas and give local children the chance to show off their artistic flair.

Arty youngsters will be bringing festive cheer to the town centre by decorating 650 3D stars with vibrant and eye-catching designs.

Participating local schools were provided with 20 to 30 stars each to turn into individual works of art.

Once completed, the hand-painted artwork will be installed around Colchester town centre to be discovered and enjoyed by visitors throughout the festive season.

A selection of the pupil’s stars will be hung in Fenwick Colchester’s atrium throughout December and in other key location around the town, such as Culver Square, Colchester Library, and many of the independent stores.

Here at In Colchester (Our Colchester BID) we are incredibly proud to be supporting the art in local schools and celebrating the festive season in the town.

The project is also supported by Colchester Borough Council, Fenwick and Culver Square Shopping Centre and after the event, all of the stars will be returned to the local schools for them to keep.
