The Adairs Building mural is now complete!

This mural depicts Tuahine Lighthouse at Wainui Beach, and Troy grew up looking out to this each time he went out for a surf. The particular one depicted in the mural is of dawn on a gloomy morning.

Project Ataahua has really enjoyed working with Troy, and we have already received amazing feedback from the community about this mural.

Artist: Troy Conole.

Sponsors: Eastland Community Trust and Resene Gisborne.

Introducing the artist for the Adairs building... Troy Conole! This is his first time doing a large scale mural, and he has totally loved doing the mural.

Troy is the senior creative artist for the Gisborne Herald, and has previously done a mural on a Chorus box down Gladstone Road.

Troy also shows his artwork on his Instagram, .

We are excited to announce that the location of our latest mural is on the Adairs Building, on Grey Street!

Last Thursday night was the regional Young Enterprise Trust awards, and we are so thankful to have won the region overall, and to be able to head down to Wellington to compete at the National Awards. We are also so thankful to have won both the Eastland Group marketing award and the annual review award.
Our CEO, Nitha Vashti, won the Female Entrepreneur Award, and also went on to win the surprise national Young Enterprise award for CEO of the Year.

Today we had the opportunity to work alongside Lina Marsh and Eastland Community Trust to create a live art piece at the Gisborne Showgrounds.

“Inhale Exhale Breathe Pause” was inspired by Titirangi Everest challenge and is Lina’s contribution to mental health awareness week.

The artwork will be donated to a community organisation. Thanks for all the support from the people who joined us today.
