As part of the City of Melbourne’s Graffiti Mentoring Project, coordinated through Arts and Culture’s Community Cultural Development program we will be creating a large mural the length of a city laneway. The project has obtained a Street Art Permit, and is therefore a legal artwork, and will be created in informal workshop sessions.

The objective of this exhibition is to extend the work of the City of Melbourne's Graffiti Mentoring Pilot Project, which took place earlier in the year, which invited young people to work with professional mentors, and to investigate, through multi-media, the broad range of what constitutes graffiti in the City of Melbourne, from the legal Street Art Permit process and the celebration of the City's well known street art, to the prosecution of illegal tagging, and the role of the Corrections cleaning teams. We hope that through this documentation process a broader understanding of graffiti, in all its forms, is developed and explored.
