Our ages 4-6 Minion Mayham Holiday Club was a huge success! 😊

It was action packed with games, obstacle courses and arts & crafts. (This was their favourite!)

A huge thanks to the Powered by Hip Hop team for making it super fun and for Derbyshire Hill Family Centre Parr St Helens for hosting us.

The club was funded by the St Helens Borough Council Holiday Activity & Food Programme

Today Kingsyze Graffiti battled the wind and rain to completed the Miners - Ex Terra Lucem Mural.

He made a few miner repairs (get it miner) to a few areas that had some light vandalism over the last few days, which has now been covered up.

The best thing about being a St Helens community arts organisation is that we work with the detached youth workers at Vibe UK Org and Reach Rainhill to engage with the young people who hang around the area.

Thursday feature mural will be focused on the Saints. 🏆

Kingsyze Graffiti has worked tirelessly over the last two days to add the details to the Love St Helens Mural ❤️ featuring a few of St Helens iconic landmarks and visitor attractions that we should all be proud of.

It’s been nice to hear so many positive words from passers by, locals stopping for a chat, photographers taking photos and teens taking selfies with a mural backdrop.

This all the kind of positivity that we love to see in St Helens and is what makes it great.

As usual a big thanks to St Helens Borough Council, Church Square Shopping Centre and Merseytravel for all their support.
