Welcome to Our Blog!
Centred around art, WAA’s blog aims to provide a space of creativity and inspiration. We hope to cover a wide range of topics; from the Association’s upcoming projects to culture, poetry and members. Additionally, the blog seeks to grow awareness of the Group, ensuring that it leaves a lasting impression like the brush strokes of a deft artist.

Creativity oozed from every ounce of paint, every brush stroke, every bell of laughter. Funded by the Ministry of Tourism, the Mural on Mero Beach was started on the 14th of July, 2023. With the project nearing an end, WAA thought it an ingenious idea to invite the community to help paint the beautiful mural.
