Today we caught up with artist Jeff McCann outside the old Manning Sport building, soon to be home to Den Arcade (LYONS DEN), where Jeff is creating one of the newest murals for the Gosford Strip Precinct. Jeff’s work is known for colour, playfulness and community, and seeing his style come to life in the C*D is a huge moment for our growing creative identity. His energy, imagination and connection to people make this mural something truly special for Gosford.
The response from passers‑by has been incredible, with locals stopping to watch the progress and celebrate the talent choosing to invest in our city centre. This is exactly the kind of creativity that lifts the Strip and shows what is possible when artists, businesses and the precinct work together.
Thank you Jeff for sharing your vision with us and helping shape the future of the Gosford Strip. Come down and see the mural for yourself as we continue building the vibrancy and creativity of the precinct we hold dear.
And a huge thank you to the 24-Hour Economy NSW team for backing this project and helping us bring more colour, creativity and activation into the heart of Gosford. Their support continues to open doors for local artists and precinct‑wide initiatives that lift the Strip and strengthen our growing city centre.
