As part of Bristol’s year as European Green Capital, there are arty projects going on all over town to brighten up parts of the city which need a bit of love.

With a bit of practice, who knows, you could be Bristol’s next graffiti superstar – move over Sepr.
There’s no need to book and it doesn’t cost any money – just come along to the carpark during the daytime on Wednesday or Thursday. Full details, including the address, can be found here, on the Rife Guide.
