Selly Oak - A voluntary youth project was established in 1984 to work with graffiti

artists and oversee a live permission wall. It hasn’t been actively managed since

1994 and residents report tagging ‘spread to every available surface in the park

Many of the participants were unclear, but it

appears that a recreation park in Selly Oak

was made a legal graffiti zone by Birmingham

City Council in 1984. The site itself was a wall

at the back of the park, by the baseball courts,

overlooked by a cul-de-sac. A voluntary

youth project was set up to work with graffiti

artists and an informal code of conduct was

developed. Prior to undertaking the graffiti,

sketches had to be submitted to the

youth worker for approval. The site was

cleaned annually.

Although initially successful, the project has

not been actively managed since 1994 and

anecdotal feedback from residents suggests

it has made the problem worse. Tagging has

now spread to almost every available surface

in the park and there are more kids than ever

before hanging around.
