Wonderwalls 2013

Overview

Wollongong. It seems like a bit of a quiet place. But take a quick wander around the centre of town and little things begin to jump out at you. Film festivals. Art. Coffee. There's a lot going on down there. And it's hard to ignore the walls these days, as well. Wollongong is covered in street art, a good chunk of which seems to be the legacy of returning local street art festival Wonderwalls Wollongong.

Artists like Rone and Phibs have graced the walls in the past, this year Smug, Askew One and Fintan Magee are a few of the highlights. As well as making the city its studio, Wonderwalls is throwing a one night, art show and opening night party at Stupid Krap, and you can get closer to the ideas as a quartet of artists tell all with free food and drink Saturday afternoon. Meanwhile, the art keeps on going up all weekend and you're welcome to come watch. Grab a map and get wandering.
