On 27 and 28 July Vision Mechanics has been invited to take our beloved giant marionette, Big Man Walking, to Glasgow’s Merchant City Festival, where he’ll mingle with the crowds, be serenaded by local performers and kick off the City’s Olympic celebrations.
Taking the Big Man to Glasgow at such a high profile time provides a unique opportunity to showcase this feat of Scottish craftsmanship and engineering.
We need £17,500 to stage the event and have already secured £15,000. By sponsoring Big Man Walking you will enable Vision Mechanics to update the Big Man’s costume, reweave his hair, refurbish and oil his body and repair his puppeteers’ costumes.
You will be able to proudly watch him walking through Glasgow knowing you have made a meaningful contribution to one of this year’s most exciting street events, which will draw massive audiences.
