Have you been to see the latest mural in Settle? Commissioned by @thefold, this 27 foot tall mural was designed using words chosen by young people in Settle and brought to life by the talented @signsbyumberto.
Lily Whittle, 19, from Wigglesworth, said: “There aren’t that many creative opportunities for people my age to get involved in here, so when I first heard about The FOLD, the prospect of bringing more of an arts scene to Settle was extremely exciting.
I felt quite disenfranchised living in Settle, like there was no outlet for young people and I was looking to leave. There were other people in the group who truly loved living here and seeing the place through their perspective made me feel more connected to the town and much more appreciative of living here.”
Get yourself down and have a look for yourself, it’s just another reason to visit beautiful Settle! 🎨
