Citywide Events - 24 Hours in Bristol

We organised the popular annual '24 Hours in Bristol' photographic competition for 5 years, in partnership with VisitBristol and Bristol's City Mayor.

10,000 photographs were taken on competition day each year, resulting in stunning exhibitions of winning images showcasing 24 hours in the life of the city.

We brought in event sponsorship, organised event logistics, stakeholder liaison, event PR, selected the judging panel, sourced competition prizes and produced the VIP awards evenings, private views and public exhibitions.

​

We also worked with Art Ventures in Bristol to transform the magnificent old Guildhall into a pop-up art centre, launched the contemporary Harbourside Arts Centre, organised and found sponsorship for the Harbourside Arts Prize and Bristol Art Prize competitions and managed a series of corporate art events for Bristol businesses.

Charity & Business Development

As well as raising over £450,000 for local charities via our citywide public art sculpture trails, we also work with a number of charities on project development and organising fundraising events.

We are currently creating corporate partnerships and promotions for the Bath-based UK charity Rainforest Concern, which has protected 5 milllion acres of rainforest since it was founded 27 years ago.

We also created cultural, sporting and business links for the Bath-based charity Bethlehem-Bath Links and brought 60 teenagers over from Bethlehem to Bath for a week-long sports tournament.  We also organised a trade visit for a group of Palestinian CEOs to visit London, Bristol and Bath and connected businesses in both cities, including linking Bethlehem's Taybeh Brewery with Bath Ales.  We organised film screenings with director Ken Loach and a wide range of social, corporate and fundraising events.

We also shipped 4 containers of animatronic dinosaurs over to Bethlehem to set up and launch the first dinosaur museum in the Middle East!
