Artist Sara Hughes' recent mural Magma supported by Auckland's Uptown Business Association has received a Certificate of Merit Award by the International Downtown Association at the 64th Annual Conference and Tradeshow in San Antonio, Texas. “The IDA Awards recognise the best of the best in urban place management so for Uptown to receive this award is fantastic news both for our artist Sara Hughes and for the mural itself which, as well as deterring graffiti and vandalism, has become an attraction for public use as a backdrop in wedding photos, fashion photo shoots, ‘selfies’ and even as the cover photo on a popular magazine."
