To mark the 700th anniversary of the Declaration of Arbroath in 2020 Dundee Print Collective created a series of striking festival flag designs inspired by collaborative workshops with community and schools.
Now its 2021 we challenge you to join in and create 701 flags for Arbroath2020+1.
Your flag you design will be displayed as part of a large art trail in Arbroath Town Centre from July.
Watch the video and see how easy it is!
