Bus Shelter Design Competition

Are you a budding artist or have an artistic flare then you might be the person that Laneshaw Bridge Parish Council is looking for.

The Parish Council is responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of 4 bus shelters within the village. In an effort to brighten up these shelters, the Parish Council is inviting budding artists or anyone with a creative flare to submit designs that could be added to the shelters to brighten them up for users and passers-by alike.

The theme of the design should be nature or the environment. The designs need to be able to be created into vinyl stickers/transfers. The designs can either be large enough to cover a whole panel or smaller designs that can be placed on either the panels or glass in the shelters.
