Charlton Cultural Council

The Charlton Cultural Council is very proud to announce the new official logo, designed by a talented student of the Graphic Communications program at Bay Path Regional Vocational School. The project was initiated as part of a collaboration between the Council and the school to provide real-world creative opportunities for students while strengthening community connections.
The students were tasked with creating a digital logo that aligned with the Massachusetts Cultural Council’s logo while being visually appealing and ADA compliant. This was an incredibly fulfilling project and the Council is very proud of the results and of our students!
