A TEAM of local young people have worked together to complete a mural dedicated to Frankston at Bayside Shopping Centre.
The mural was finished with the help of street artist Sheldon Headspeath (pictured far right), who grew up in Frankston. He said that the project had helped young people “express themselves”.
“Projects like these keep young people engaged with their community and help them develop life skills such as team work, scheduling, communication and completing a project under instruction. Participants also get to install artwork they can be proud of, in streets frequented by them and their friends,” he said.
“Seeing the young people build confidence as the project comes together is really rewarding, as is seeing the pride they feel when they realise what they have achieved.”
The mural can be seen on the wall of Brake Care.
