Paintbrushes And Vivid Imaginations Needed!

Got a desire to paint the town red? Or white? Perhaps blue? Maybe purple, green and pink stripes, with yellow and orange polka dots? Then Home Hill is looking for budding artists young and old to get along to Lloyd Mann Park and refresh the current panels.

Anyone is welcome to attend, day or night, and create their own little bit of creative magic, all in the name of public art. The only request, no graffiti or obscenities. Other than that, the five panels that abut up against the fence by the rail line are your canvas to go completely wild and crazy on and have fun with.

It’s a great way for families to bond and connect with the community or some budding artiste or group of artists, to show off their extraordinary talents. Best of all, if you don’t like what you create, you can simply paint over it and start all over again.

Seen from the nearby Bruce Highway, and accompanying the Big Sardine Can, Lloyd Mann Park is a beautiful and friendly spot to stop, where many people go to have a picnic, rest up after a long drive from down south, or simply admire the parklands – and your art!

Whatever your heart and creative mind desires, anything’s possible.

So come contribute and be part of the community to make this public art space in Home Hill the envy of all. Bring your paintbrushes, spray cans, your vivid imagination, and enjoy yourselves.
