the venue is the hourdings surrounding the building site on manzil park which is on the already colourful cowley road in east oxford.
the wall space surounds 3 sides of the building site. and the new health centre isnt due for completion untill sept 2006. so the murals will be up for a good while!
there are also a few other legal walls in the area!

this event has no funding and is being orgonized for the luv of it all,

or go to streetmap.co.uk and type in manzil way .then pan out to find the TRAIN STATION which is in the main city to the west of the jam.
trains from bristol only cost £13 day return.£9 from reading etc... so get on down!

BUSSES from london victoria and run 24hrs.
they cost £13for a 24hr.return or £7 if you leave after 3pm.
£16 for an open return
get off at st. clements and just ask anyone where the cowley road is.

the BUS STATION is in the town centre so just head east and ask for cowley road.

Cars can be parked in tesco carpark on the cowley road.
Hitch hikers should be able to sort it out for themselves!
