Members of the Wai Art Group are to fashion large murals of a working bakery that will be hung in the front windows of the shop to create the impression of a bakery inside, he said.
Other elements of the main street rejuvenation project include having a roster of artists in residence in vacant shops in the CBD, he said, along with brightly coloured bench seats that would be wheeled out during business hours.
A book exchange also is planned for the CBD, Mrs Cherry-Campbell said, and a piano on a large trolley that would be decked out in the graffiti art of young taggers.
"There are plans to have a few things popping up and grabbing people's attention," she said.
"Hopefully, what we're doing will encourage business-owners and residents to have pride in our town, we're just giving it a bit of a helping shove in that direction."
Thanks were given to The Milk Churn on the CBDI Facebook page for sponsoring the volunteers with "much-needed coffee to keep us going ... and amazing pizzas" and volunteer Christine Hammond also won praise for her offering of homemade scones. Mrs Durbin also was thanked for treating the volunteers to dinner after their work was completed on Thursday.
"Makes you realise what an amazing town we live in, and how fantastic the sense of community is."
