Pascual supports community art |03 June 2025

Bel Air bus stops transformed into live art spaces
People travelling on the Bel Air route must have witnessed a vibrant explosion of creativity and community spirit. On Saturday the Bel Air district was transformed into a live art gallery as 10 talented artists brought their masterpieces to life across the bus stops in the area.
This exciting public art initiative gave visitors the unique opportunity to watch artists paint live in front of them, turning everyday spaces into dynamic expressions of culture and colour. In addition to the featured artists, students from the 91㽶Ƶ Institute of Art and Design (SIAD) also joined in the initiative. These young creatives had the opportunity to paint selected bus stops, allowing them to contribute their talents and gain hands-on experience in public artmaking.
The event was sponsored by Pascual 91㽶Ƶ, which proudly contributed to the community’s vibrancy. As part of the festivities, Pascual offered free product samples at the Vines Bus Stop, Victoria where passers-by had the chance to taste Pascual products while celebrating the artistic transformation of Bel Air.
“We are thrilled to support the community through this vibrant art initiative,” said Pablo Arias Pereira, Pascual 91㽶Ƶ country manager.
“At Pascual, we believe in promoting health, well-being, and the power of creativity. This event is an exciting way to bring the community together and showcase the incredible talents of local artists. It’s a meaningful way for us to contribute to the cultural and artistic development of 91㽶Ƶ,” he added.
The Bel Air district administrator, Sylvie Ah-Time, also expressed her excitement. “We are incredibly proud to host this live art experience in Bel Air. The transformation of our bus stops into colourful, artistic spaces is a celebration of our community’s culture and creativity.”
“We hope these bus stops will not only serve our community in facilitating their daily commute but also become a tourist attraction. We encourage residents of Bel Air, members of the public, and foreign visitors to take pictures and promote these artists’ creative works on any media platforms. We want our bus stops and the Bel Air district to trend in a positive way and showcase the amazing work done by Seychellois,” said Ms Ah-Time, adding she hoped the initiative inspires more public art in the future.
