New bus shelter art project launched in Derry's Galliagh area

A new project will take place in the Galliagh area of Derry to enhance a number of local bus shelters.

Sinn Féin councillor Sandra Duffy said the project is a positive development for "the enhancement" of a number of bus shelters in the area.

“Its great to see the work that has gone on with local artist Joe Campbell, On Street Community Youth and an older men’s group (via Greater Shantallow Community Arts) being able  to complete a set of designs based on local history and heritage in early 2023.

“The designs were finished in June and have been on display in the foyer of the new Galliagh Community Centre for a number of  months.

“I hope that this project can be replicated in other areas in the times ahead and congratulate everyone involved in helping to brighten up and bring art into our communities," Cllr Duffy said.
