ARCHIVE ADVERT - by Crawford Fulton
This is a design for a poster with which to promote a project intended to start in 2013. The goal of this initiative is to invite the community in Irvine to submit photos, films and video of the town from the past 170 years. If funding can be obtained, CI would hope to collaborate with others in order to produce a DVD and possibly an exhibition.
The Archive now has a Flickr Group:
