Colour lift for animal nursery
THE animal nursery at the Warrnambool Showgrounds has received a much-needed ‘colour lift.’
Decades-old graffiti on the exterior of the shed was recently painted over by members of Warrnambool’s Rotary Club Daybreak, providing a perfect canvas to allow for the hanging of several colourful artworks.
Program coordinator with the ‘Find Your Voice Collective’ James Chapman, together with previous coordinator Kylie Thulburn, were also instrumental in bringing the project to fruition.
The ‘Find Your Voice Collective’ art gallery now features on the north wall (Koroit Street) of the animal nursery.
A small band of those involved with the project braved the cold winds on the morning of September 20 to ensure the pieces were in place for that afternoon’s official unveiling.
People are now encouraged to stop and take a ‘selfie’ with the masterpieces and upload those to the show society’s social pages.
