Bear, Atlas, Ollie and Chooky

This heartwarming mural is the work of father and son team Tim and Sam Bowtell. Together they have painted Sam's two children (and Tim's grandchildren), accompanied by the family dog and a chook in danger. It can be found at the rear of the old SEC building, with access hopefully through an often-locked gate. It was painted for the 2024 Benalla Street Art festival in late March.
