Brighton Dome unveils fantastic Pride mural

The illustration has been commissioned by Brighton Dome & Brighton Festival, to create a temporary mural on the building’s New Road hoardings.

The large-scale drawing by Kemptown resident Ella Morris, represents a diverse range of genders, identities, ethnicities and body shapes.

The artist’s vision was to create something fun but with a sense of purpose, immediately communicating the celebratory atmosphere of Pride.

Ella said: ”I’m really excited that Brighton Dome have given me the freedom to create this artwork. It’s a privilege to have my illustration on display in the city centre and for so many visitors to be able to see it during Pride 2019 is incredible for me as an LGBTQ+ artist.”

Brighton Dome will be joining in with Pride celebrations by opening its doors on Saturday (August 3) from 10.30am to 4pm to visitors enjoying the parade.

Brighton & Hove Pride 2019 Open Day will include free, family-friendly activities including glam and glitzy puppet-making, super sparkly face-painting and big and bold badge-making.
