OLD Town Festival organisers are hunting for a designer for the front cover of this year's programme.

The programme is an integral part of the festival, which is taking place this year from June 25 to July 3, helping to provide a timetable of the events.

It also helps to raise funds for the festival committee.

Historic re-enactments, jazz music, continental markets and the now familiar procession will be among the highlights of the summer event.

Organiser of the contest, Jane Tabatabai said: "The competition is a great chance to contribute to Old Town and bring ideas to the festival.

"Any designs should be a collage and reflect the values of the Old Town Festival.

"The design could include pictures of previous festivals, a particular landmark in the area or even a poignant memory of Old Town."

Designers of all ages are being urged to submit their designs on A5 paper (half the size of A4).

The winning entry will receive a prize and will be able to take part in the festival procession on Saturday, July 2.

Entrants should send their entries along with their name and contact details to the Old Town Festival c/o Sue Thornton 6 Sarsen Close, Old Town, Swindon, SN1 4LA.

Entries must be in by February 25 to be chosen by March 1.
