LARGS BAY RSL MURAL

The Largs Bay RSl Mural and Largs North Train Station Refurbishment Projects were extremely successful and gained critical acclaim for the positive impact they had on the community.

A joint venture between the City of Port Adelaide Enfield and Trans Adelaide resulted in a project at the Largs North Railway Station to minimise graffiti in this high public traffic area. This project is an excellent example of how an holistic approach can address community safety issues including graffiti vandalism, personal safety concerns and maintenance, through improving the design of public areas.

The project began with a mural at the western end of the station. Featuring an aquatic theme the mural was designed and painted by students from Largs Primary School. This initial project highlighted issues with the adjacent dimly lit laneway known as Upton Avenue. The side wall of the Largs North RSL Hall which abuts the laneway provided an excellent canvas for the creation of a 41 metre long mural depicting the contribution made to the armed services in wartime by the Lefevre Peninsula community.

The second mural was created by accomplished aerosol artist Paul Alexander who was ably assisted by students from Lefevre High School. HYPED Edutainment working with TransAdelaide, the City of Port Adelaide Enfield and the Largs Bay RSL, created and implemented a large scale mural complimented by onsite interpretive signage that celebrated the many stories of the members from the Largs Bay RSL. This innovative project featured dimensional elements within the painting and was opened by the South Australian Attorney General Hon. Michael Atkinson in 2006.

A tremendous amount of time, effort and planning went into this project over the space of many years. It was very ambitious and there were a lot of doubters, despite all of the obstacles the mural was successfully completed on time, under budget and still stands today 5 years later intact.

HYPED Edutainment is a progressive project management organisation offering tailored programs and solutions targeting youth and community causes, education and entertainment within the arts. This project is an excellent example of what can be achieved between private enterprise, local Government and community.

The completed mural project also acts as a colorful welcome to interstate & local rail passengers to the city of Adelaide & the Wayville precinct, especially around ‘Show’ time with over half a million visitors each year, many utilising the new Showground Central Rail Station. The overall expected yearly audience is estimated at approximately one and a half million people.

This mural has gained the enviable status of being known as a landmark tourist attraction and an arts icon for Adelaide, South Australia and the precinct of Unley.
