This is the seventh piece of street art created in Ballina over the past 3 yrs as part of the #PureBallina Community Street Art Project, supported by @duluxirl, Archers and @creativeirl. Thanks to the property owner and the volunteers from @BallinaCleanUp who prepped the wall
We were delighted to prep this wall a few months back for the young people from Foroige NYP to work their magic with @MaserArt. Thrilled to see bees & biodiversity represented and a neglected area of Ballina given new life #BeelieveInBallina 🐝
We finally finished our 2020 festival today, after Covid disruptions! @MaserArt was back in town to work with the young ppl from Ballina Neighbourhood Youth Project (Foroige) to create this vibrant piece of street art, which reflects Ballina's rich urban flora fauna. #PureBallina
