Street art adds colour to Grimsby’s town centre revival

Grimsby’s town centre continues to transform, with a vibrant new street art piece joining a wave of regeneration efforts reshaping the area. The mural, titled Migration, was recently completed by local artist Dogma Art on Victoria Street and features a flock of birds flying over a cherry blossom tree.

The artwork is part of a broader push to bring life and beauty back to the high street. Recent changes include colourful planters, living walls, and decorative plaques created by school children, all contributing to a more inviting public space. Riverhead Square has also been revitalised, now serving as a relaxing spot for residents to unwind and socialise.

Dogma Art’s mural was created in just a few days but took weeks of preparation, including stencil design and coordination with local stakeholders. The goal was to create something that not only brightened the streetscape but also aligned with the town’s evolving identity.

This creative addition sits alongside several larger developments, including the Horizon Youth Zone, Alexandra Dock housing plans, and the upcoming E-Factor Business Hub. Together, these projects are helping to secure the future of Freshney Place and support more than 1,700 local jobs, part of a broader strategy to breathe new life into Grimsby’s urban centre.
