Art & Cultural Events List

I am seeking proposals for graphic designs for our upcoming Fluff Festival materials.

The Fluff Festival is a Union Square Main Streets event which is held each September in Union Square in Somerville. You can find more information about the Fluff Festival on the USMS website or the Fluff Facebook page.

We will need the designs for a suite of items, which may include, but not necessarily be limited to, a digital poster, postcards, streetpole banners, buttons, social media icons and promotional items, such as T-shirts, caps and tote bags.

Our theme this year is Fluff X - the X is to signify the fact that the Fluff Festival is 10 years old, but also will include some versions of Xtreme sports/games, and may use the X as marking the spot of Union Square or as X marks Union Square as the crossroads of Somerville. Examples of posters from previous Fluff festivals are below to give you a better idea of the style we are seeking.

While we are only able to pay a small stipend, we will widely acknowledge the work of our designer.

Proposals should include:
examples of former work,
information about experience designing for our full suite of items,
professional references,
your timeline, and
any drafts you might want to submit or propose for this year.

I will be reviewing proposals as they come in, as I am hoping to have the work done as soon as possible, but the cut off date for proposals is Monday, July 6.

If you have any questions, I would be happy to try and answer them any time before Thursday, June 25, when I am leaving for vacation. I return on July 7 and may not have email access while I am away.

Thanks and looking forward to hearing from you.

Esther
