Street Art Walk

S.A.W (Street Art Walking) is a street art project & collective - run by the gorgeous Simone Sheridan - that creates (temporary and permanent) public art spaces. SAW wants the city to come alive with artworks dispersed throughout the streets, creating a public Art walk for all to enjoy - both Locals and tourists. The project is supported by The Octapod Association and Renew Newcastle.

The goal of S.A.W is to bring back a sense of pride within The Hunter Street Mall in particular, whilst showcasing artistic talent.

Simone is now also a freelance Arts Administrator & Business Broker - an intermediary between businesses & the creative industry. She's available for consultations so just head over to her Facebook page for more details!

Simone popped in last week to give us Blackbirds a lovely gift!

A beautiful polaroid shot of the "Darby St" wall on the side of Goldbergs. Sean just scanned it in so we could share it with you.

We think Simone is doing a tremendous job of liaising with the powers that be to have sanctioned Street Art popping up all over our town.
