YOUNGSTERS were offered the chance to show their colours in a graffiti workshop at a youth centre relaunch party.
Wolvercote Young People’s Club lost its funding from Oxfordshire County Council in sweeping cuts last year.
But the St Peter’s Road centre has now reopened with the support of a charity trust and grant money.
It held an open day with music and dance on Saturday.
About 100 people turned up and Oxford graffiti artist James Loraine-Smith hosted a workshop.
Senior youth worker Dave Rudge said: “Graffiti is a proper form of art. The aim is to channel that artistic flair to get people to do something productive with it.”
