Where Wild Things Sing is here! We’re excited to launch our Community Arts Exhibition at the Sheffield Arts Centre, celebrating creativity and the songs of nature through colour, movement and imagination.

Held alongside International Mural Fest 2026 at the Sheffield Arts Centre, this exhibition brings together artworks by community artists, each with a story to share.

And, while attending International Mural Fest from Sunday 1 November to Saturday 7 November, you can also leave your mark on Sheffield by helping paint this year’s community paint-by-number mural designed by Lindsay Gardam.

40 Years of Murals in Sheffield and One Very Special Book!

We're celebrating 40 colourful years of murals with the launch of the limited edition 40th Anniversary Sheffield Murals Book! Pictured celebrating are KACT President Sandy Brattstrom, alongside Cindy Dyer, Rachel Campbell and Tamara McBain from Slaters Country Store, long time supporters of the Sheffield Murals Project.

A fantastic keepsake, souvenir or gift, the book was created in Sheffield and printed in Devonport, with all proceeds going towards the maintenance and restoration of our treasured murals!

Available from Slaters Country Store, Sheffield Art Gallery, Sheffield Visitor Information Centre and other local Sheffield businesses.

40 years of murals. Countless stories. One very special book!

40 years of murals in Sheffield and a little care helps keep their stories alive!

You might recognise Mark, one of KACT’s dedicated volunteers, lending a hand to clean Sheffield’s much loved murals. We’re grateful for the time and care our volunteers give to help look after this special part of our town’s identity.

As we celebrate 40 Years of Murals in Sheffield, we’d love a few more helping hands. If you would like to volunteer, please send us a message. Every contribution makes a difference.
