Feel Good Lane Alleyway Mural Project
This art project was happening just this past weekend. Murals were painted over graffiti that were all over garage doors. This location overlooks a children’s playground and was all organized by the amazing Brooke Somerleigh @missladyoops who made the local news.
Here’s a quote”
“Our vision is making it much brighter and when the kids are there, the awe in their faces when they see the art versus what they’ve been seeing, which is just, it looks a little run down,” she said.
They began with the goal of transforming two or three garages with help from donations on a GoFundMe page.
They raised about $3,800, but they also caught the attention of the city’s StreetARToronto (StART) program @start_streetartoronto, which supports vibrant street art programs in order to reduce graffiti vandalism, encourage active transportation and make laneways more inviting spaces.”
I tried to get before and after photos where possible. but some of the murals were already done when I got there.. It was also really cloudy this past weekend..
