A Revolutionary Reminder a three-day event held across Colchester that used the centenary of the Russian Revolution to celebrate the possibility of radical and revolutionary social change.

A mobile programme of new artworks and piano performances by Pianist Jason Frederick played from a lorry, outdoors, across Colchester.

Funded by Arts Council England’s Grants for the Arts. Supported by Art Exchange, Colchester Arts Centre, and Colchester Trades Union Council.

Posters and graphic design were a vital tool of the Russian Revolution. Low cost to produce they enjoyed mass distribution. A Revolutionary Reminder gives away free posters to remind all of us of the constant need for revolution. The posters are designed by artists: Adam Burton, Ruth Ewan, Clare Marsh and Mark Titchner.
