As part of Concrete Canvas: Reimagined 2025, SPARK! has been working with local creative practitioner and Project Manager, Candy Joyce, to design and produce 500 colouring books featuring 16 of the city's permanent murals, which are hot off the press this week! This project is in partnership with Chelmsford For You.

The beautiful and imaginative colouring activity books are accompanied by packs of coloured pens, generously donated by STABILO International GmbH. They will be distributed exclusively by Kids Inspire - a children's mental health charity - to local children aged 10-14 who may not have seen the artworks or receive a gift at Christmas.

To accompany the colouring book, we have launched a colouring competition so many more young people can take part and have a chance to win one of five fabulous colouring packs below, donated by STABILO.
