Chuffed to be helping the team at Spennymoor Mural Festival this summer 💚 Dates and artist announcements to come > search ‘Spennymoor Mural Festival’ across socials #smf24#durhamculturecounty#spennymoor
Spennymoor Legal Wall is officially open! We had a lot of people ask at the festival where they could practise. Having community walls like this is great for different artists to practise their skills in a safe environment.
Tomorrow is our busiest day with a full roster of artists painting from 9am and an event in the gallery from 5-8:30pm. Coming to the event is a great way to show your support for the festival, even just stopping by will help us with getting more funding for next year.

Be more Lewis ☀️ He had an idea, then grafted until it happened. Today is the first day of Spennymoor Mural Festival. There’ll be live painting all week - looking forward to seeing these walls come to life! Follow @SpennyMuralFest for more info
8 artists painting murals from 2-9th of July
Walls are located behind Defty R Hardware, Spennymoor https://t.co/Rmfi5JC5gb
An exhibition running in the Bob Abley Gallery throughout July
It would be great to see you all at this event, there will be a chance to get more information on what the festival has achieved and what our plans for the future are. In particular how a supporter of arts and culture in Durham can be involved in moving forward with us.
Such a pleasure getting to see @faostyles in action yesterday, and great to have him on the Spenny team. If you have a wall and you would like to discuss getting a mural from Frank, please get in touch.
