UC Crew working with St Helens Young Offenders

During February and March 2022, UC Crew and partners Kingsyze Graffiti have been working with teens from St Helens Youth Justice Service to revamp the youth justice centre office with a growth themed art mural.

Our team worked with the young people to create a large scale graffiti art mural in the car park of the building, ready for installation in the office during the week. At first, the teens were reluctant to get involved in the creation of the art mural but soon gave it a try with motivation from the youth justice service staff.

The art mural workshop aimed to provide an alternative activity for the teen’s experience, to be inspired by Sie’s journey to be a self-employed street/graffiti artist and provide an opportunity to take up art as a career or hobby.

The project was supported by VRP Sports, Arts and Culture.
