The City of Wanneroo hosted the Five Pillar Project: ‘Meeting Place’ event at the centre, with community members invited to paint images on the centre’s pillars.
Mayor Tracey Roberts said the activity was designed to create a strong sense of community and welcoming at the facility.
“In the artistic brief, project participants were asked to design images that reflected the growth of the Banksia Grove community,” she said.
