Street Art Community Project

WANTED: VOLUNTEER PAINTERS...


Having been impressed with previous SkyWay street art programmes (please see links below) and the work produced by the young people in restoring previously dilapidated spaces in their community with original pieces of art work, a Hackney resident has recently offered SkyWay a 10 metre high exterior wall on the side of her home (see image to right) to create a lasting piece of street art.

SkyWay street art programmes aim to provide young people with the opportunity to express themselves in a legal and safe environment whilst creating a lasting piece of artwork that will benefit their communities.

Such a project is on a scale far greater than anything SkyWay has previously undertakenn and would provide SkyWay with an unprecedented platform on which to present the positive work it does engaging young people in constructive and progressive activities.


SkyWay would very much like to undertake such an ambitious programme in late November / early December '09.


We are looking for volunteers to help paint the wall white prior to the street art commencing. Ideally we would like to carry this out during one weekend but are flexible.


If you are interested in helping out, please contact Danny on 020 7729 6970 or email info@skyway.uk.com.
