The author of The Joy of Being Brighton, Nigel Swallow, started the calendar and ran it for 17 years. In 2020 he handed it to Arthoc to design, produce, and sell, to help raise funds for their community art projects. It brings us great joy knowing it continues to be popular with so many people, near and far.
