Local Councillor Helen Abrahams is thrilled with the response to the Woggoon Stairs art project last weekend, and is expecting a big turnout for the finishing touches this weekend.
A local resident suggested the project, and over the past months a small group of local residents have obtained funding from The Gabba Ward, designed the artwork, sourced supplies and scheduled the two weekends for painting.
This is a community art project so you would be most welcome to come along and apply a dash of paint.
When
Saturday 1 October from 6 am Block colours and details added
Sunday 2 October from 6 am The final finish if not completed on Saturday
Where
St James Street at the bottom of the stairs
What to bring
Paint brushes, hat, sunscreen, a bucket of water to wash down your brushes, newspapers.
If you have a container for your paint that would be useful as well. We are asking people to bring their own equipment and take home to clean as there are no cleaning facilities on site. The newspapers are to cover the steps to stop paint splashes.
What will it look like?
