Tallinn 2011 presents new logo and slogan

Estonian culture foundation Tallinn 2011 presented new logo and slogan.

The slogan sounds "Kultuur kutsub" meaning "Culture Calls"
and it is aimed to speak to the audience and tell that the next year Tallinn is the symbol of European culture. The marketing logo and slogan were developed by Midfield Ltd.

As reported, total costs of the project Tallinn 2011 are 17.5 million euros. This sum includes all expenses related to the organization and implementation of the event, i.e. marketing, management, promotional and other costs. Initially, two times larger sum was intended for this purpose, but in course of deterioration of economic situation costs have been decreased dramatically; nevertheless, as organizers pointed out, the quality of the event has not decreased due to the lesser finance.
