Campfire is a blueprint for social networking which we believe addresses a currently untapped niche in the creative community. It has been devised and is led by social entrepreneur Pete Lawrence, the founder of the successful Cooking Vinyl record label and Big Chill festivals. The Big Chill was well known for its thriving and proactive online community before the current mainstream social networks were established.
Campfire aims to be different. We want to build a complete ecosystem for the inspired and imaginative person thinking about culture and creative practice; arts meets science meets activism meets crafts meets funding meets social interaction.
It is clear that there exists a large, untapped demographic who are actively engaged in the creative industries, are wary of commercial interests impacting on their social networking experiences and are brand-aware trendsetters and tastemakers looking for something fulfilling, informative and practical, in order to make tangible the things that are presently intangible. Turning dreams into reality.
We hope you will find our Campfire circle warm and inviting, as well as being productive and fun.
Launch is scheduled for 2015, and we will announce our first event plans upon launch.

2. What is a Festival?
An event or community gathering, usually staged by a local community, which
centers on some theme, sometimes on some unique aspect of the community.
But, What is a community based Festival?
Community-based Festivals are neighborhood or street events that aim to
promote human and community development through the direct participation
of local people in their design, content and dissemination.
3. What is the purpose of a
community-based festival?
These types of festivals generate links of
encounter, communication and a sense of
belonging and identity. The objective is to
create a link with the community and
promote and encourage citizen participation,
generating a process that helps to
compensate the social fabric and the
appropriation and improvement of public
spaces.
4. SOME REASONS FOR HAVING A COMMUNY BASED FESTIVAL

This step consists of collecting and analysis of data to identify resources/assets, problems and the
disposition of local people, in order to establish goals that meet the specific needs of the
community.
7. What are the resources / assets to be identified?
• Physical Assets: All the material elements that a community has and that can be used to carry out the
festival, for example: public and private spaces (parks, squares, schools, etc.), means of transport,
accommodation facilities, etc.
• Institutional Assets: All public institutions, such as government agencies, schools, NGOs, etc.
• Human assets: Skills, experiences, passions, creative capacities, willingness to participate and sense of
identity of local people.
• Economic Asserts: All productive activities in the community, such as companies that offer goods and
services, formal and informal businesses, etc.

Assets for Collective
Memory Festival
9. 2. Develop idea and aims
Shepherding your event through initial concept to reality requires an understanding of the interests,
diversity and trends of the community. Your first steps will be:
• Communicating with stakeholders, associates, civic and community leaders about your idea
• Finding people who will help turn your idea into a workable festival
Determine your goals
After carried out the community analysis for interest, ideas and recommendations and forming a group
of interested people, you can begin to develop a statement of what are festival objectives are going to be
and how you plan to achieve them. Take time to develop both a Vision Statement and Mission Statement
through discussion of the values, goals, contributions and growth that is anticipated.
10. 3. Organizational team
New festivals can be comprised of a small committee of people committed to the project. So your first
step is to determine how many people you’ll need to organize and run the festival and where will you
find them.
As your festival grows, you may decide to expand your committee and have sub committees to handle
things like policies, rules and regulations, finances and decision-making.
Choosing a good team empowers the organization with the best possible potential for success. Having a
team that agrees to the objectives and goals, and is willing and able to see the process through will
foster:
• Collaboration
• Creative thinking
• Positive discussion and debate
• Informative communication
• Support and encouragement
11. 4. Planning and logistics
What do we need to make this festival happen?
Knowing the who, what, when, where, why and how of the festival will help you to establish its main
components such as:
• Finances, logistics, resources, venue, media, sponsorship, volunteers and staff resources you require and
what the cost will be.
a) Define your audience and participants
To determine what audience you would like, review what your festival is going to be and what you want to
achieve.
• Is this audience in your community or is it regional or Provincial?
• Are they a widerange of people or a specific group?
• Do you want to keep the festival/event local?
• Are you planning for the festival to get bigger each year expanding beyond your immediate community?
*Make a list of all potential groups or segments of the population you would like to attract to your event
(e.g. families, teens, seniors, sports groups, performing arts groups, etc.).
12. b) Establish the date
• When setting the date for your festival, pay careful
attention to the time of year, competition from other
community activities and your target audience.
• Research your community calendar for conflicts and
options and choose a date that best suits your
festival/event.
• If another festival/event is happening at the same time as
yours, research the opportunities for another date or
perhaps explore the possibility of a joint venture.
• Having an event during special holidays could mean your
audience is distracted or out of the community.
13. c) Develop and maximize your theme
Your theme is used to package your festival and everything in the package should be
related in some way to the festival theme. The goal is to consistently communicate your
theme in everything you do. It should be considered and used in: your festival title, your
programs and activities, types of foods served, displays, music, decorations, uniforms and
the design of your signage and promotional material.
Maximizing your theme should be a fun and creative process. Come up with fun and
quirky ideas that build on the topic; for example, a festival of collective memory may
have a contest of photographs taken by community members of events that have taken
place in that locality.
14. d) Determine the location
Where you hold your festival is a crucial component of the planning process and directly
affects its success. Look at the requirements of all the programs and activities planned
and determine their needs and requirements.
Some relevant questions
• Is there plenty of space for the performances, activities, vendors and participants?
• Are there adequate facilities such as power, lighting, water, bathrooms and parking?
• Is it accessible to all visitors?
• Does the venue suit the programming?
• Are there buildings or businesses that could be adapted into venues?
• What are the site conditions like?
15. d) Get in touch with community
This is one of the most important aspects because it is the beginning of the direct
relationship with the community, it is the approach that will be taken to involve the
community in the various activities that take place during the festival, such as:
participation in workshops , exhibition of local products, presentation of artists, etc.
Some activities to develop
• Contact the members to the community to determine their participation (artists,
exhibitors, merchants, etc.
• Establish alliances with local associations that work on the focus of the festival.
• Contact local providers of services necessary for the realization of the festival.
• Establish agreements with local authorities.
• Identification of volunteers that will participate.
16. Making a Plan
Planning the entertainment and activities for the festival hold start by researching the target audience and
possible participants in and around your community. Answer the following questions:
• Who is the target audience? The goal is to be as inclusive of everyone as possible. This does not mean that every portion of
the program needs to appeal to every person, but the overall programming should have something for everyone.
• Who in the community can participate through performances and activities?
• What clubs, associations or groups would have materials that could be borrowed, or if bought will enhance the
programming (displays, site décor, costumes and props)?
• What is the most appropriate venue for the programming? Is there enough power available? Adequate washroom facilities?
Access to kitchen or would a portable facility better serve the festival?
• How many volunteers will be needed? For example, people will be required for line control at venues, front-of-house in
venues to help with seating and ticketing, back stage coordination, changeovers on stage, technicians for every venue,
costumed characters, food vendors, etc.
17. 5. Developing a Budget
The development of the budget consists in
the creation of a balance sheet based on
Revenue and Expenses necessary to the
implementation of the Festival. The sample
budget items hear will give you an idea
where you can obtain funding and different
sources of revenue. It will also help you
identify what expenses you may incur. Also
think about what items you can borrow and
who might sponsor or donate needed
materials or other resources. The example
list here can include any other costs you can
think of, to create a potential budget. For
grant purposes it’s a good idea to keep a
record and set a value for in-kind donations
18. 6. Festival Schedule
The next step in the process is to begin preparing a festival/event timeline that sets out the
timeframe for action. Some organizers call this a Master Schedule.
The benefits of effective scheduling include:
• Avoiding problems by having the information recorded regarding due dates and deadlines.
• Having all the information you need at hand by establishing set meetings, reporting and minutes
to track progress, identify issues early and determine the actions needed.
• Possessing a complete directory of all pertinent personnel.
• Determining the number of volunteers you will need based on the number of tasks.
• Establishing the resources needed to operate the event.
• Having better control over the outcomes by seeing how well different programs and activities fit
together.
• Experience a sense of accomplishment as tasks are completed.
20. 7. Program Desing
The program of activities should be designed according to the analysis of
the resources and needs of the community. The contents must be
attractive, appropriate for the audience, relate directly to the general
theme and be consistent with the objectives set (mission and vision).
The festival programming requires a clear agenda to provide the
audience with an entertaining experience that draws attention to the
important characteristics of its objectives and provides messages
consistent with your topic.
21. Some considerations for the design of the program
• Choose suitable acts that suit the target audience
• Select appropriate venues for activities and performances
• Determine the roles of the volunteers who will participate
• Identify all materials, equipment and technical needs
• Determine costs and their correlation with the budget
• Assign the pertinent relative tasks to each member of the work team
• Create a communication and community promotion strategy
22. 8. Evaluation
How do you plan to measure your success?
Evaluation is an ongoing process and an organization should take some time to look at itself internally as
well as looking at the external components of the actual festival
Some reasons for evaluation are to:
1. Determine if you have reached your objectives
2. Measure the success of the components of the festival
3. Review the process from the beginning to the end
4. Identify the strengths and weaknesses of the festival
5. Identify the strengths and weaknesses of the team
6. Assess the accuracy of the area budget
7. Be accountable to the festival/event organization, stakeholders, sponsors, volunteers, participants and
funders
8. Determine where there are future community opportunities
23. The first step in evaluation is asking:
a) What do we want to evaluate?
b) When will evaluation take place and where?
c) Who will perform the evaluation?
d) How will we evaluate?
There are two types of evaluation you should employ and both can be used from the beginning of the
process to monitor how the festival is progressing and where there may be issues
Qualitative measurement gathers data to sum up the outcomes of the participants’ experience using
written or online audience surveys, asking participants direct questions on-site, video-taping aspects of the
programming and getting feedback from volunteers, sponsors, suppliers and performers.
Quantitative measurement compiles of hard data from such sources as, ticket sales, merchandise sales,
venue admissions, vendor fees, budget figures and audience attendance counts.
