We're back for 2025 with more Murals, more Artists and more Locations...

8 February 2025

The weather is slowly warming up and we've been busy planning the next round of murals to appear in and around Grimsby and Cleethorpes! Welcome back to the Paint The Town project for 2025!

We finished last year on a high with the
Pink Bear mural in Cleethorpes by LUAP and we've been planning this years murals and bringing new artists in to the project.

We've also secured funding for more murals, bringing our goal this year up to a whopping 7 murals to be completed by the end of summer!

We'll have more details to share soon...

We'll be back on Cleethorpes promenade by the end of February to get the mural redrawn on the steps at the back of the Armed Forces Day memorial after having a slight delay last year while the walls were re-rendered.

The vibrant mural designed by Creative Start and Nomad Studio will be painted during March by members of the PTTP Team, Creative Start volunteers, Armed Forces veterans, members of the RNLI and the local community.

Don't forget to come and say 'Hi' if you see us working!

We've been spending some time indoors over the winter working on some new items for merchandise.

Our 'Colour The Town Proud' Colouring book is now available from our online store. The team have also been working with the Studio team at 'The Comeback' on a range of mugs, bags and even flip-flops for the summer!

We've been keeping busy over the winter working on some new merchandise and we're proud to launch our new colouring book! In the book are ten murals from the ‘Paint The Town Proud’ community mural project reimagined and redrawn by local artist ‘Kevin Atkins’ for you to colour in! (We’ve even added a blank wall at the end to have a go at creating your own). Each one of the murals has been designed by different artists from far and wide, and can be found on the streets of Grimsby and Cleethorpes. Each mural tells a story. Some of the stories are about the towns history of fishing, others the amazing wildlife that can be found in our area and some that look at our town in an unusual or surprising way. Scan the QR code on each picture with a smartphone to find out more about each mural. You can use your own colours to decorate them and try your hand at creating a mural for yourself. Have fun colouring in them all and then go out and see if you can find them on the streets of Grimsby and Cleethorpes. Hint: You can see a map at: www.streetartcities.com/cities/grimsby with all the murals. Keep an eye out for more murals appearing on the streets of North East Lincolnshire soon!
