Campus in the City, 23 March 2019, Lancaster

March 25, 2019 | james

Another year has passed (hard to believe!) so Sally and James once again presented Litcraft directly to the general public at Lancaster University’s Campus in the City engagement event. The day proved an ideal opportunity to showcase some of our new non-digital design tasks – especially given the likelihood of younger participants given the event and day (Saturday) – as well as unveil our shiny new banners and promotional material.

It was a crisp day, leading to a higher attendance than last year. A couple of interested secondary English teachers even wandered in to have a good chat (the banners piqued their curiosity!) – exactly one of the outcomes we had hoped for.  Feedback was readily forthcoming (directly from parents – always a valuable source of opinion) and was universally positive.

The event team were good sports in wearing our cardboard Minecraft heads (James steadfastly refuses – he knows how many people have worn them previously), which contributed to comfortable and welcoming atmosphere – which made the event so positive. It is a great initiative run by Lancaster University, and kudos to this year’s organiser Anna Mackenzie.
