Description

This cache is being created to help meet the requirments of GA16236 July spelt in July coronavirus edition...

I love graffiti! This amazing creative designs that people create as a way of expressing themselves. 

As a way of recognising this important art form (and preventing crime), many local councils are creating legal caching sites for people to practice their skills, and lots of communities or business owners are commissioning artists to graffiti their underdecorated walls or water tanks. 

This cache is here to celebrate these initiatives!

 

In order to log this cache you must take a photo of a legal graffiti site (sign or notice included) or take a photo of a commissioned graffiti artwork.

Please include coordinates with your log so others can check out the cool site!

In line with amendments made to requirements for listing and finding a Locationess geocache, this geocache has been reviewed and found not be in line with the listing requirements.
Locationless Cache Wiki Information
Armchair style Locationless caches where the finder is not required to explore the real world, identify a location and accompany the 'Find' with photographic evidence are no longer accepted.
A Locationless cache listing must require the finder to locate an object or perform a task in the real world, collect the co-ordinates and log the find with accompanying photographic evidence.
The geocaching community would like to thank you for listing this Locationess geocache and congratulations to all that found this locationless geocache.
As the geocache no longer meets the requirements we will archive the cache listing.

Today we completed the Railton to Sheffield series of GC caches and after stopped in Sheffield for lunch. We were sitting near the skate park having lunch when I noticed this amazing commissioned graffiti so had to go for a closer look and get a photo for this cache. Particularly liked the helmet warning although that one is getting a bit worn now.
Thanks.

Co-ordinates are: S 38 06.998 E 144 21.500

Suscoe was out on our walk this morning and passed by the Powerhouse project site in North Geelong.
It was hoped that this would become a world recognised creative space of sorts displaying large and small scale graffiti art.
The works on the external walls are certainly impressive with our favourite the dragon.
Sadly this project seems to be too difficult for the local authorities to cope with.
Thanks to Nibletricecakes for this opportunity. CoolCoolCool

Near these coords This legal Graffiti by Polly Johnstone was done as part of the street art festival 3 years ago. It has since been combined with an app and you hold you phone up and the book moves down, smoke comes out etc. It seems like magic. Not sure how it works but it is great. You can use the app on two other street murals to make things in them move..

This bit of legal graffiti appears on the side of Happy Days Restaurant in Maryborough , Queensland.
We had been back to this place twice to locate a deviously hidden cache . Impressed by the artwork though.

One of the best commissioned graffiti sites I've seen is this one in Glasgow Scotland. Great piece of work with lots of visitors checking it out. If you get to Glasgow, hunt it down, it's in the CBD area.

Thanks for the chance to show this one off nibletricecakes.

This art work was on the corner of Ruthven and Union streets Toowoomba. If you’re a lover of art, take a step outside the galleries and experience Toowoomba‘s emergence into street art. February 2014 saw local and world-class artists put paint to walls at sixteen locations over three days in the First Coat Street Art Festival and the results catapulted the Southern Queensland Country town into a whole new light. These art works appear and disappear every two or three years or so as they form part of a art display. Some remain from year to year and some get painted over and another piece appears in it's p[lace. TFTL Very HappyVery HappySmileSmileClan Minotaur

My favourite legal graffiti was done in a tunnel under High Street in Shepparton, originally a dreadful place where all sort of undesirable people convened there.
It was taken in hand by the Department of Justice and Graffiti Prevention to make a legal mural which is now a delight to walk through. I enclose a copy of the plaque and a sample of the now legal graffiti to be found there,
Thanks for making a cache out of this, there are some brilliant artists out there.
