Community Housing Limited partnered with Kempsey Shire Council, Kempsey Headspace, and professional artist Soraya Touma to support young people to design and deliver a youth mural as part of the Savages Lane Revitalisation Project.

Community Housing Limited successfully gained mural space in Savage Laneway as an area to stage and highlight the voices of Kempsey Youth, create prospect for learning and growth and to deliver an opportunity to express and showcase local talent.

Exciting new murals in Kempsey created by our talented customers

Young local emerging artists have been engaging in all stages of the mural design, planning and application process. The artists decided to digitally collaborate on their design using Clip Art, the design captures Kempsey landscapes connecting to South West Rocks and Hat Head shores with the representation of the LGBTQIA+ community.

Through this project Young people from Kempsey Shire were given a voice, and were mentored through the process, creating opportunity for personal and professional growth while showing off the talent that is upcoming in this Community.
