“I love love love this!!
How amazing and those kids would be super proud that their artwork catches everyone’s eyes as they go past, so much better than a plain wall.. we need more and more of this! How talented they should be EXTREMELY proud! It’s so awesome.

My daughter loved the course! Kade was amazing.

This is fantastic! We need way more street art in Bello, and what a great experience for the young artists to learn from a mentor. Looks fantastic.”
