To celebrate this years Youth Week, I packed my bags and headed to Julia Creek, home of an endangered marsupial The Super Dunnart. I was hoping to get away from the rain, which has put a dampener on some of the projects in the pipeline in Brisbane, but no such luck! With some help from the locals I brought the skate park to life on over couple of sunny days after the rain.
Fresh from another project in Emerald I have again had a very productive and enjoyable time. This most recent project spread Aerograffix with a number of agencies completing murals and workshops at the skatepark, PCYC, Community Solutions, Anglicare Office and banners to celebrate Disability Action Week. It was great to work with some very talented young artists and continue to strenghten partnerships within the community. The number of canvasses and murals produced over the eleven day project was incredible showing demand for the school holiday arts workshops was strong. A big thanks to Anglicare for the opportunity to return to Emerald, also Central Highlands Regional Council and PCYC for supporting the project.
The Urban Art project continues with plenty of action in Grantham, Laidley and Kensington Grove or “Hatto” if your local. I want to extend my appreciation to all of the artists, community members, skaters and riders for welcoming Aerograffix and getting involved in this exciting project.
