30th Anniversary Bird Mosaic Mural
The Town Council has worked with a local artist, Katie Hanning and Councillor Angela Morey (who led on the collaborative project) to create a mosaic bird mural to celebrate the Town Council's 30th anniversary. The mural has been formed by bringing together a flock of small mosaic birds that have been created by different individuals/groups from Bradley Stoke, representing both the individuality and collectiveness of our community. The birds are grouped together to create a flock of birds that are flying across the wall of the main Town Council office building at the Jubilee Centre.
