It is important that everyone involved in NEOS uses the logo. If we have a range of different logos this confuses the public and diffuses the impact of any promotional efforts.
These logos remain the copyright of North East Open Studios and are for NEOS Members use only, and must not be shared without prior permission. Contact us here.
When using the logo file please don’t enlarge them — you’ll impair the quality. They can be reduced a little and must be kept in proportion.
To download logo images, click on the link to the relative format and the image will open in a new page. Then right-click on the image and choose ‘save as’ to download it to your desktop.
Clearly, you have to personalise them with your number, or numbers for shared venues. Those of you who have been in NEOS for a long time will know that your number changes every year, so for the newbies out there, be sure to not permanently mark your signs because you don’t get new ones every year. You can buy vinyl numbers and arrows online or you can print out your numbers and arrows and laminate them to fit the space on the yellow board. We have found you can stick the laminate to the board with sticky fixers – outdoor ones usually survive the rain! When NEOS is over you can just remove the laminate and your signs are ready for next year…
For information about when your Yellow signs can go up and where you can put them, please read the relevant guides on this page.
If you need more yellow signs to help signpost your event download this file and print on to YELLOW PAPER! Alternatively, this could also be used as a poster template if printed to A4.
There are three local authorities involved in the NEOS area and each has specific rules for placement of your yellow signs before, during and after NEOS.
Please take the time to read the instructions relevant to your area. (click to download). The local authorities have to power to take down any signs they deem inappropriate and NEOS could be fined, so its best to follow their rules.
Please download, print and display your poster so that visitors can clearly see it. Remember, there is a prize draw for £100 and £50 if they scan the QR code and enter their email (the email provided will be sent a link to the Visitor’s Survey).
If you would rather take visitor’s emails manually (like in previous years) please feel free to do whatever you feel comfortable with. If you do take emails manually, we would ask you to copy the emails into (preferably) an excel document but any virtual document that we can just cut and paste the information from is great.
Thank you so much for your help in this matter – we will all benefit from the responses we gather in visitor survey.
