Urban Art Walls
Using buildings as a canvas, Creative Hobart is making high quality urban art a celebrated part of our landscape.
The walls have been painted by experienced and emerging artists and include over 50 works completed since 2015.
The program has evolved considerably over its lifetime and now includes ongoing collaborative projects with Vibrance Festival and the establishment of a permission and regular Paint Jams in Bidencopes Lane.
If you are interested in painting or commissioning a mural, you can download a guide from our art guides page. If you are interested in exploring the city via our collection of murals, go to our brochures and maps page.
Wellington Court Mural Commission - Expressions of interest (EOIs)
The City of Hobart wishes to engage an artist or creative team to create an artwork for a wall in Wellington Court, and to provide mentoring to a young artist throughout the development of the artwork.
The successful artist will receive a fee of $500 to produce a design.
Once the design is approved the artist will receive an artist fee of $10 000, and $1500 for materials.
The City of Hobart will work with the artist to arrange access (such as safety equipment, exclusion zones and lifter hire, and will cover these costs as well as the cost of anti-graffiti coating).
