24/6/2011, Gateway Foyer - London, Mural Workshop

We were asked to co-ordinate a workshop for the Look Ahead - Gateway Housing Project, which is sheltered accomadation for vunerable young people. The task was to teach a few residents who had never used spraypaint before in order to paint a mural in the Common room. This was part of a complete Renovation project at  Gateway, there were over 50 volunteers pulling together to give the place a much needed facelift. The session was split into two parts, we begun by discussing ideas and producing a plan for the wall, we then painted it. The girls who participated did an absolutely brilliant job, onlookers had a hard time believing they we're all complete beginners! - Kieran, Artist at Graff Workshop
