Livingston is celebrating its 50th anniversary as a new town in 2012 and plans are underway to mark the occasion. It is expected that a number of official and community events and activities will take place in spring 2012. In preparation for the anniversary pupils at Livingston schools are being invited to enter a design and art competition which will result in the winning art works being displayed in a special exhibition at Howden Park Centre next April. Pupils are being asked to design a special logo which will be used to identify Livingston’s anniversary events. It is planned that the logo will be reproduced on all information which is printed or promoted on websites.
