Graffiti Action Day Sunday 2 May 2010
How to become involved:
1. Register. Send an email to graffitiactionday@kabnsw.org.au and advise of your location. You will be assigned a group to join as a volunteer.
2. Confirm the site co-ordinator. The site co-ordinator will usually be from your Local Council. However, if there is not a group in your area Keep Australia Beautiful may ask you to be a site co-ordinator and will send you a site co-ordinator form which needs to be completed before any work can begin. It involves your product requirements, risk assessment of the site and type of surface material you will be cleaning.
3. Get your graffiti kit. Once the site co-ordinator form is processed you will be directed how to pick up your free graffiti clean up kit.
4. Rally volunteers. If you are a site co-ordinator you will need to rally volunteers. This could be done through community groups, sporting clubs or schools. You will be supplied a poster in a pdf format which you can print locally and place in popular venues where appropriate. You will be emailed a media release that you can use to contact your local press and radio. Please encourage them to visit your group on Sunday 2 May.
5. Report. Once the day is over, email a brief summary of how the day went, what interest it attracted and any improvements you might suggest.
A poster will be displayed in our common areas in the Redfern Waterloo
areas from this week. We are keen to promote civic and community ownership
within public housing areas through this initiative.
We are
hoping that with your support and involvement, more sites across the Inner City
Area can be nominated. There are many ways that you can support us and our
residents, including but not limited to:
- Joining us on the day as volunteers or
site coordinators, - Donation of refreshment or
giveaways.
Please
talk to Tuyen Duong, Project
Officer, Strategic Projects Division, Housing
NSW
(ph: 9268 3492 or mob: 0434 148 921) or email us on tuyen.duong@housing.nsw.gov.au
to let us know of your idea and support for this initiative or other sites that
should be nominated. Your support would be acknowledged as part of the promotion
and any feedback and media about the event.
