Keep Dunedin Beautiful is refreshing it's George Street underpass mural.

The beloved North Dunedin mural is being extended, incorporating the word "Ōtepoti" with letters designed by 15 pupils from seven different schools in the area. 35 years or so ago, KDB ran a competition, with the winning cat then painted in repetition along the wall by pupils from Otago Girls High School. It also includes a plaque commemorating the very first Keep Dunedin Beautiful mural and the people who painted it.

While remembering the history and story behind the first mural, the additional will bring a burst of creativity and colour to our streets, inviting residents and visitors alike to experience the joy and inspiration that public art brings.
