You’re Invited!

Join me for the unveiling of my mural ‘Rough Gemstones’, on 23rd October at 2 pm at Hat Gardens (Luton LU1 2EP)

 

With its vibrant colours and intricate geometric layout, the mural celebrates Luton’s multicultural brilliance, symbolising 225,262 individuals as gemstones in need of recognition. Embracing the brutalist architecture’s unique charm, ‘Rough Gemstones’ is set to illuminate Luton with its message of opportunity and unity, showcasing the town’s true shine waiting to be polished.

 

After the unveiling, you are warmly invited to gather for refreshments at The Engine on Bute Street.

 

Please RSVP to info@silvialerin.com to confirm your attendance.

 

This public artwork has been funded by Luton BIDLuton Borough Council, Luton Point and supported by the Culture Trust.

 

I look forward to sharing this special moment with you as we all celebrate Luton’s rich heritage and vibrant community.

 

Warm regards,

 

Silvia Lerín
