The inaugural Sydney Stencil Festival was a winning experience for the community and art lovers all around.

Pine Street Creative Art Centre hosted the festival with works from local and international artists; including live demonstrations by prominent artists; Numskull, Mini Graff and Ezekiel 25-17.

An exhilarating charity art auction raised over $2000 for The Settlement Organisation. Part of this will support activities at Mum's Space, a mentoring program for young mums, recently opened by the Lord Major.

Many visitors also created their own wearable stencil fashion, so watch out for stencil art in and around town!
