A new mural is set to “bring colour and community spirit” to an “underused” river bank.<\/p>\n
Sheffield artist, Zoe Genders, has begun creating the artwork on the side of the Sheaf Bank Business Park, next to the Cutler’s Walk footpath.<\/p>\n
The mural will cover more than 200 sq m of wall alongside the River Sheaf and footway, which connects Sheaf Bank in Heeley with Queens Road.<\/p>\n
Genders, a former CBBC prop maker, said: “Cutler’s Walk is a beautiful walkway along the Sheaf and I’m really excited to add some pops of colour to encourage more people to walk along the river and maybe even do some bird watching”.<\/p>\n
The 46-year-old said she was “really chuffed” to be chosen, having previously had her work featured at Pounds Park, Cutlery Works and Bolehills BMX track.<\/p>\n
She said the final design had been shaped with the help of young people at Carfield Primary School and Heeley City Farm. <\/p>\n
“The workshops have been great and given me a tonne of ideas,” Genders said.<\/p>\n
“It’s been lovely to have local children directly involved in creating inspiration for the mural.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A new mural is set to “bring colour and community spirit” to an “underused” river bank.
