Diogo Jota Mural was £2000 the rest of the money invested into an LFC programme

 

Thoughts and ideas?

I'd gladly chip in for a mural that says "FUCK OFF VENKYS" in 10 foot high letters.

Rochdale Town Centre has just had some fabulous gable end murals painted  Some of those artists would do a great job.

How do you go about getting it set up. Permission from the homeowners presumably for a start?

My ex was one of the artists for that. She’s recently done the skate park at Great Harwood too. I’ll try and glean some info.

There have been lots done in Morecambe, these have been done by Deco Publique who organise the Festival of Making and are based in the Making Rooms by the Museum. I‘m sure they’d have lots of information on the planning side of things

The murals I referred to are huge and usually on the sides of public buildings.

Alot were done in Blackburn so a local artist would be a good place to begin also but ideas welcome styles etc permission is first and foremost

Who would you like to see on a mural? 

I'd like to see Shearers signature celebration, #9.

Something from yesteryear 

Something unique to us displaying the artists skill and intuition perhaps 

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

The first two are from yesteryear unfortunately.

‘I just turned up and did the mural, no idea how it works behind the scenes’.

Useless as ever.

You could possibly contact prism in the town centre.

 

They have a mural at the back of their building + have commissioned others in the area too. Jamie Holman is likely a good bet to contact.
