Cupid Stunt Puts City
In The Mood For Love
Cupid
has been spreading the air of romance in Coventry today to help the city
get in the mood for Valentine’s Day.
A
"living sculpture" of the Roman god of love has been in the
Precinct to entertain visitors to the city centre.
 The
bow-wielding cherubic deity is just part of a stream of activity laid on
by the City Centre Company to celebrate the most romantic day of the year.
Characters
in historical dress have been handing out leaflets for free prize draw.
The person whose entry is pulled out of the hat will win a meal for two at
Inspire café bar plus tickets for "Leader Of The Pack" at the
Belgrade Theatre.
Gillian
Lawless, events and promotions manager for the City Centre Company, said
it was hoping for a change in the weather for Cupid's sake.
"We
have hired a top "living sculpture" artist to appear and we
are just hoping he doesn't sit and shiver and give the game away.
"Most
people's thoughts turn to romance around Valentine's Day and we are
hoping our winner and his or her partner has an enjoyable night at
Inspire Café Bar and the Belgrade."
