Creative Folkestone Open Quarter is a weekend festival celebrating Folkestone's Creative Quarter and the artists that live and work there. The festival took place from Fri 1 - Sun 3 Jul 2022. I designed this year's festival identity. Assets included print and digital marketing materials, banners, screens and an eight page A5 programme.
