Withington Walls is a grassroots street art project bringing colour, creativity and conversation to the streets of Withington. We work with artists and local people and businesses to paint shutters and walls turning neglected or unloved surfaces into public artworks. The project is volunteer-led, relying on donations and grants, collaboration and shared ideas rather than commercial commissions. The result is a free, open-air gallery that everyone can enjoy.

Withington Walls also supports wider causes and conversations. Alongside celebrating local culture, the project has helped raise awareness and funds for other causes and community initiatives By using public art as a platform, the works amplify messages of compassion, inclusion and solidarity, while inspiring creativity, reflection and positive action in others. It’s about showing how art in everyday spaces can encourage people to care, respond and get involved
