Beautiful New Murals In East Sussex With Albany Paint!
October 22nd, 2024
Brewers Hastings wanted to contribute
to some fantastic new murals being painted in their local area, so decided to
donate 50L of Albany Smooth Masonry paint to add some next level colour to the
coast!
Two
areas in need of a revamp at St Leonards in East Sussex have been transformed
with vibrant murals.
The
first mural incorporates a butterfly and flowers, now adorning a building in
Hatherley Road on behalf of a cultural heritage and wellbeing social
enterprise, which supports racialised and under-served communities. They
repurpose long-term and empty buildings and land into an accessible and
inclusive community space.
The
other mural is at the local station on the site of an old café. The building
had been vacant since 2013 and had become an eyesore, which had a negative
impact on the town and visitors. Local artist Christine Gist, along with
Guerilla Joe and Richard Heley campaigned long and hard to be able to turn this
once gloomy site into something dynamic and colourful.
Branch
Manager, Mandy Verrall said: ‘We were delighted to help both sites and we feel
the results speak for themselves!’
