The colourful artwork
Earlier this year inmates at the jail were tasked with designing artwork to thank key workers for their efforts during the pandemic, which would then be painted on a utility box belonging to Virgin Media.
Designs were created as part of a competition run in place of art classes at the prison, which could not be held due to Covid-19 restrictions. The best designs were submitted to the city council’s Environmental Services team who chose the overall winner featuring a rainbow and the line ‘Thank you for always being there’.
The design was recently painted on the box, situated at the junction of Grange Road and Westfield Road in Ravensthorpe, by an art tutor from the prison. It has received several positive comments from people passing by and drivers honking their horns in support.
