As part of the G37 my role was to lead as a community engagement officer with the research and planning, which involved sourcing properties and gaining information for Bunny and the team of iCreatenotdestroy to paint murals. Facilitate the relationships with local stakeholders, partners, community leaders and local businesses, with Bunny so he could co-create and engage with the local residents, so the art created was co-produced with input, discussion and ideas from individuals and community groups. Art with meaning, instead of just for arts sake.
