🎨🦘 Have you seen what Lee is doing down at the Corowa Skate Park right now? Skateboarding native animals are officially taking over the walls, and it is absolute perfection.

Think koalas grinding rails, kangaroos playing ball and cockatoos pulling off tricks, our local wildlife has never looked this cool.🫶

Stop by the park to say hi to Lee, watch the walls come alive, and see which animal lands a new trick next. 🛹💨

Corowa local Lee Wight is painting vibrant new murals across the skate park’s shelter sheds and toilet block, ensuring the vision for a refreshed, youth-centric space comes to life.
