The Edwards Park Art project is a partnership between the City of Port Phillip Council, youth arts project Make Your Mark @streetartentrepreneurs, Social Health Inclusion Port (SHIP), CoDesign Studio working with well-known local artist Danny Awes from 90 Degrees and a resident street artist facilitator Dave Turner (aka Drahtfunkart).
Following on from completing a successful mural at the Sandridge Community Centre, the group worked with Council to secure funding from the Victorian Government’s Department of Justice, Community Crime Prevention Program.
The project started in September and will culminate with the painting of the mural during an onsite “live studio” at Edwards park in Port Melbourne on Sunday 25th November 2pm – 4pm.
The mural will be designed and painted by the Make Your Mark local youth under the guidance of a Dan from 90 Degrees and Drahtfunkart.
Everyone is welcome to come and meet the artists!
The young people consulted with the local community at Edwards Park on Saturday 22 September and interviewed over 40 people about ideas for content and design of the mural.
We’d like to take this opportunity to thank Bill and Rochelle from PMNC as well as the other contributors to Edwards Park Art project - the Country Women’s Association who provide delicious dinners each Thursday, and Bunnings Port Melbourne who gave a very generous donation last term to assist us with materials and supplies.
