04 great glasgow treasure trail
Organised and run by holeinmypocket to coincide
with Scotland's Architecture Week, the Great Glasgow Treasure Hunt combined
some of the city's most popular architectural attractions along with a
few that are a little less known.
The event took much coordination with the
various destinations that agreed to be involved and The Lighthouse. It
was vital that the trail be free to enter and complete. For this reason
we negotiated free or reduced entry to any of the destinations that charged.
Where this was not possible the clues were placed in areas that were without
charge.
A series of hand drawn and painted posters
were designed and reproduced for several of the destinations in order
to promote the Treasure Trail. At each destination a clue would be on
display that would invite the participant to interact with his/her surroundings
in order to progress to the next stop on the trail.
The trail proved to be a great success with
a large number of people of all age groups taking part. We had encouraging
feedback from many who took part and also lots of interest from people
requesting to be informed of further Treasure Trails. We hope to build
on the success of the first trail but unfortunately this year we were
unable to organise Treasure Trail 2 due to other work commitments. There's
always next year.
