Harrogate Spring Water issues call to help redesign iconic branding

Britain’s oldest bottled-water brand, with a history dating back to 1571 when the first mineral spring was discovered by William Slingsby at The Tewit Well in Harrogate, is launching the initiative to support the arts and creative industry.

Artists have been asked to design a limited-edition label to showcase the diverse culture of the Royal Albert Hall.

It comes as officials get ready to celebrate its 150th year during 2021 and into 2022 with a series of events, performances and commissions.

Craig Hassall, chief executive of the Royal Albert Hall, said: “The hall has been a meeting place – and an inspiration – for artists of all kinds since we opened in 1871 and we can’t wait to see how contemporary creatives interpret our diverse history.”
