The Penguin Artists in conjunction with local artists with psychiatric disabilities have painted a mural for the people of the City of Moonee Valley with the theme "Finding Our Place, Representations of history, space and identity in the City of Moonee Valley".

The video documenting the mural will be launched on Saturday 16 May 2009 at Flemington Community Centre. Contact Penguin Artists on penguin@vicnet.net.au for details and an invitation.
