A City Less Grey
A City Less Grey is our on-going project that commissions artists working in public places.
Through A City Less Grey we aim to support the development of new work with artists who’s practice or aspects of their practice operates outside of traditional art establishments and to profile the wide spectrum of Street Art.
To make this happen we work with artists that understand the importance of the local and the need to embed work within communities.
We hope you enjoy how we are striving to make Leeds a more creative city and to profile the identities and distinctiveness of our communities.
Contact us with any feedback or suggestions.
