The kids who took part in the holiday workshops will be offered to opportunity to paint alongside their mentors and deliver a vibrant project.

"We are excited to be once again working alongside renowned artists from Blender Studios to create vibrant artwork at the Central Park skate bowl,” Director Communities and Place Kevin O’Brien said.

“We have a group of local young people who have been doing amazing capacity and skill building activities with the artists throughout the year, and to reward their growth with this opportunity to leave a legacy in the city is special."

To give the artists space to operate, the Horsham Skate Park will be closed between 13 December and 20 December.
