In a coastal village south of Colombo, a Tsunami ravaged village comes back to life. Unawatuna with its beautiful beaches has slowly come back to the life it knew before the big wave hit them.

And in this village a nearly six foot high 200 metre wall is seeing completion and Timothy Seneviratne and his friends want it to be a place of joy, reminiscent of the beauty of the sea. He invites all who love the sea and art to come to Unawatuna on Saturday 23rd February and join in a day of fun, painting on the wall.

The project is themed Under the Sea and to join in to spread joy and create beauty and history visit http://www.unawatunasmiles.blogspot.com
