The Opening of the Westcott & Pennsylvania Houses
www.westcotthouse.org; www.restorespringfield.org/penn/

Interface Creative Group has been instrumental in partnering with the Frank Lloyd Wright designed Westcott House, and the Pennsylvania House- a boarding house, inn and stop on The National Road. These two house museums are newly restored traditions of Springfield. Interface worked diligently with these two great organizations with publicity and ongoing marketing.

The Center City Criterium

The Criterium was a new event for the summer of 2006, in which cyclists from around the country competed in a bike race in right in downtown Springfield. The event also included a series of amature walk/run races, races for children and adults, and other festivities- featuring spinning on the plaza with The Fitness Cellar and the downtown Springfield Farmer's Market.

Public Art

2006 brought several new pieces of public art to the community of Springfield. Interface has played an important role in the unveiling of the sculputres, managing marketing, various levels of PR and also implimenting a new Public Art Tour of Springfield and some of its outlying areas.
