POSTSCRIPT has been crowned as the winner of this year’s Carnival Window Competition – for the third year in a row!
The Frome Times and the Frome Carnival committee teamed up to run the competition, with local shops decorating their windows to celebrate the town’s Carnival.
The runners-up trophy was awarded to two windows this year, new entry The Rose Garden and Absolutely Fabulous.
On winning, Gary Yoxall director at Postscript said, “The left window was hand drawn by Bridie, Natasha Hutton (lead designer) and Leonie Moreland (customer assistant). Having won this important award for the past two years, we were determined to give this window our best shot. The design took three hours to hand draw and winning was all the more appreciated as a result of our fantastic staff’s efforts.”
![Town-wide programme brings month of social activities in May
A month-long programme of activities and events is set to take place across the town in May as part of an initiative encouraging residents to connect with themselves, each other and local places.
The scheme, Frome Connects, will run throughout the month and includes a mix of social activities, creative events and informal meet-ups in community spaces.
Highlights include the return of Dress Up Fridays, which began during lockdown and invites people to wear formal clothing or fancy dress and turn the town into their catwalk each Friday.
Set-piece moments include a Kate Bush-themed flashmob (Running Up That [Catherine] Hill) on 30th May, followed by a bell peal at St John’s Church where the bells will play Running Up That Hill.
There will also be a whole-town drone photo on Friday 30th May, with everyone encouraged to ‘look up’ at around 12.30pm.
