St Arnaud Silo Arts for Mural Monday

 




I once travelled frequently through the town of St Arnaud en route to my professional duties in Horsham. However, with the advent of telehealth—and the subsequent expiration of all referrals—I no longer have cause to visit this part of Victoria. In earlier times, I would often pause to explore the local shops and, on occasion, take quiet delight in the region’s artistic offerings, including the striking silo art that lends the town its distinctive charm.

  1. Those murals are phenomenal. Very striking and quite possibly modelled by some of the local people?

  10. I was delighted to examine and describe many grain silos in Western Victoria and other states, https://melbourneblogger.blogspot.com/2018/06/public-art-in-rural-australia-grain.html
    but I must have visited them way too early for St Arnaud. Thank you for enabling a link to your special town.

  12. They are great. My neighbour is at the moment on a five night coach tour to see silo art. Each night they stay in different motels.
