1207 GALWAY CITY DEVELOPMENT BOARD - ANNUAL REPORT
A&D were the graphic designers selected to design the Galway City Development Board's new Annual Report. The 48 page bilingual report documents progress on the board's ten-year economic, social and cultural strategy for Galway city. The photograph above shows pupils from Scoil Bhride in Shantalla working in the Westside Community Organic Garden. This model of community gardening, initiated under the RAPID (Revitalising Areas Through Planning, Investment and Development) scheme, concentrated initially on working with school children but has now engaged volunteers from the local area. The project was launched on the popular Mooney goes Wild show on RTÉ Radio 1.

0807 KILKENNY ARTS FESTIVAL
As Kilkenny complete their clinical (Inevitable?) dismissal of Limerick in this years All-Ireland Senior Hurling Final, we're taking a look back at the work we completed for Kilkenny Arts Festival 2007. From the posters and various flyers, to the different strands of advertising, the main festival programme, the theatre programme, music notes and visual arts programme right down to the stickers and signage required in The Marble City, let's just say it kept us busy this summer. (Not so busy that we didn't have time to enjoy Limerick's thrilling journey to the final, mind.) We've also just completed placing national recruitment ads looking for a new Chief Executive Officer for the festival.

0707 THE PERFORMANCE CORPORATION
The Performance Corporation is one of Irish theatre's leading companies. Its fresh, award-winning work blends thrilling visuals, hi-tech innovation, edgy writing and strong physical intuition to create a "choreographed anarchy" that has garnered audience and critical acclaim. "On the Mullet peninsula, in a time that's neither here nor there, lived two townlands at war with each other for no good reason except it was something to do when the days got longer. Emlyclough North and Emlyclough South were the names of those two warring tribes. I'll tell you, they hated each other down to a man. Except for this one oddly exceptional case. Isn't it funny how a person can get so fiercely lovey dovey over a person playing for the other team." A&D designed the poster and programme for their unique new outdoor spectacle, Lizzie Lavelle and the Vanishing of Emlyclough. Photo by Colm Hogan.

Coming in at one eighth of a page in Hot Press magazine, we reckon this flyweight is punching around about welterweight. Which is as it should be!
