The Bondi Beach Graffiti Wall
The Bondi Beach Graffiti Wall
Until it became a formalised space for budding street artists to channel their work in the late 80s, Council was paying nearly $400,000 a year in graffiti removal. An application process started about a decade ago with spaces awarded on merit and community involvement.
The curation has become more “Instagrammable” over recent years (how to upset the “traditional” graffiti artists 101) and the wall has become a drawcard card of its own.
