                    Public art comes to you. It is out and about, as you are, on the street. It can be a permanent feature of the cityscape; or fleeting, there one day, gone the next. It can be a thing to look at or an experience. 

                    Public Art Melbourne commissions art in the public realm, opening up city spaces to artists to create encounters with the unexpected for the people of Melbourne. Once commissioned, permanent public artworks enter the City’s collection. Free guided tours of the co​llection​ ​are now available.

                    Whatever form it takes, public art is there to make life more interesting and more wonderful.​
