Artbox 2019/2020

Artbox 2019/2020

Artbox is a City of Gold Coast initiative that aims to deter graffiti vandalism by painting traffic signal boxes with bright, artistic designs, which also improves the visual façade and appeal of our streets. Every year local artists are invited to submit their creative ideas and artworks for a chance to be featured throughout the region. Original artworks by AW’s Emma Van Zaane and Laura Strange add new energy and vibrant sights to the streets of Mudgeeraba, Nerang and Robina, respectively.

OK, Zoomer.

Are you secretly working from your bedroom and you only look dressed from the waist up?Do you want to hide the fact that you have posters of D grade celebrities stuck to your bedroom walls? Or that ‘Hang in There’ cat poster?

It’s ok, we all know you love it. But let’s keep it private, shall we?
