Deer Park History Mural Completed

Deer Park History Mural - Deer Park Arcade next to Deer Park Pharmacy on Ballarat Rd.
This was a big project which was finally completed today.
My role in this was facilitator and artist and it involved many days of volunteer work. I was assisted by many other volunteers and there were many partners in the project.
