A treat for you this Advent
These pictures on the right may just look like creatively designed key words for Advent, but that’s not all they are. These four pictures can take you into our new digital innovation, Traces of Advent.
We’ve teamed up with Twelve Baskets and Digital Mission to create this fun digital experience, known as augmented reality, for your enjoyment this December. By downloading the free app Aurasma Lite, with your iPhone, iPad, iTouch or Android phone, you can watch four exciting films that use the text of David Adam’s Traces of Glory, simply by holding your device over the images.
For details on how you can join in, visit the Twelve Baskets’ website here or log on to the Traces of Advent website.
Let us know how you get on! You can tweet us @SPCKPublishing or visit our facebook page.
Scottish launch for Kenneth Steven’s Evensong
Kenneth Steven held a launch for his new book of poetry Evensong at the beautiful Scottish Storytelling Centre in the centre of Edinburgh on the evening of 17 November.
Accompanied by some rather tasty Scottish-themed canapés, guests enjoyed readings of Kenneth’s poems along with short explanations of their sources. It was a very interesting evening for all who attended.
