Redwood guests dressed for a masquerade theme xmas party

We organised an awesome Christmas party for publishing agency, Redwood, that will be remembered well into 2012. Don’t take our word for it, this is what the client said.

‘Thank you so much for arranging such a fabulous party last night. I really appreciate all the hard work that went into it – from finding such a different venue to getting that rather marvellous ‘golden ticket’ sound track! Thank you.  There are rumours it was the ‘best one ever!’ I think everyone had a lot of fun… and we’re all paying for it now.’

The masquerade-themed party was held at nightclub of the moment, Cirque Du Soir, and costumed guests were welcomed with Circus Passion cocktails and enjoyed extraordinary circus acts, including a record-breaking contortionist. There was also a golden ticket draw where five people each won a very nice cash prize. Canapes and a vodka ice luge kept the partygoers dancing well into the night… and we were there until the very end to make sure everyone got home safely.

We’ve just finished overseeing the Tesco Magazine online Kids Book Club drawing competition and think the three category winners deserve huge congratulations! Well done to Edward Hopper, Angus Macfarlane and Humaira Asif who each win an an art kit and £500 worth of books for each of their schools!

The competition invited children to draw a picture to illustrate an exclusive short story He Should have Listened to Grandad by Steve Hartley and prizes were awarded to the most creative and unique entry from each category.

The entries were judged by much loved kids’ illustrator Ed Vere who said ‘I’ve had a lovely day looking at all these fantastic drawings, thank you. There are clearly some great artists working out there! It’s been very hard to pick winners because all the drawings were so good, so well done to everyone and don’t forget to keep on drawing!!’

There’s a gallery of some of the fabulous entries at http://kidsbookclub.tescomagazine.com/picture-competition.html

A winning entry!
