The Valdemorillo City Council has launched the town's first graffiti competition, aimed at decorating the exterior wall of the La Candelaria bullring.

The initiative seeks to encourage citizen participation, especially among young people, through the creation of a large-scale artistic work. The mural, which will cover 300 square meters, will be located at the corner of Robledo de Chavela Street and the Cerro Alarcón road.
The theme of the contest, titled 'Valdemorillo: Bulls and Dehesa', aims to capture the natural essence and traditions of the municipality. Participants, who can enter individually or in teams of up to three people, must be over 16 years old.
The deadline for submitting designs is throughout the current month of July. The winning project will receive a prize of 1,500 euros and the artwork will become part of the urban landscape of Valdemorillo.
