After seven days of hard work (and lots of laughs), our #TheGoodTimes newspaper is here, on the so-called ‘most depressing day of the year’, January 16, 2012, in all its bright-inked beauty.
TCOLondon made the newspaper by reaching out to all kinds of people online and finding out what makes them feel happy and inspired. It has seven sections; Peoples!, Lovely Money, Trees & Animals, Art & Stuff, Ink On Paper, Robots, etc., and Running & Jumping.
As well as stories about pothole gardeners, puppies, kids ruling the world, outdoor swimming, adbusting and bank bypassing there are exclusive interviews with the two rad Daves (Attenborough and Eggers), the ambitious dude behind the School Of Everything Dougald Hine, kids book writer and illustrator Dallas Clayton, and philanthropic inventor Professor Joshua Silver.
What’s more, the whole production process was made transparent on goodtimes.thechurchoflondon.com and an archive of its creation will continue to remain there for all to see.
Copies will be distributed around the capital today, January 16, 2012, by our own ‘happy van’ and other dedicated #TheGoodTimes distributors. A full list of stockists can be seen on the website.
And, for a limited time only, copies will be available on the Stack magazines shop, for just the price of postage and packing.
To celebrate the project, TCOLondon is heading to the White Horse on Hoxton Street, from 7pm, for beers and hangs.
Come down and join us!
