  • A playful, stylized logo reading 'The Village Hall' on a teal background. The text is in bold, white, uppercase letters with a slightly irregular, hand-drawn style. The letter 'I' in 'Village' is creatively designed to resemble a key, with a circular head and a long vertical shaft. The 'A' in 'Village' features a keyhole cutout, reinforcing the key theme. Small, light-colored musical notes float around the text, adding a lively, dynamic feel to the design.
