The Cúirt International Festival of Literature is an annual literature festival held since 1985 in Galway in Ireland. The Irish language word cúirt means "court".[1][2][3] The festival consists of a variety of events taking place over the course of a week each April with attendances and contributions from Irish and international authors. It includes readings of poetry and fiction, discussions, poetry slams, book launches, masterclasses, spoken and musical performances, multimedia events, theatre, and visual art.[4] It was originally a poetry festival but its scope has broadened to include other forms. The brief was to design all aspects of the festival's printed media including the festival programme, brochure, posters, invites, exhibition banners, flyers & more. The front cover tree illustration was designed by the artist Mary Reynolds.
