The Veterans Public Art Trail aims to highlight the contribution of the veteran community to Melbourne’s built environment by showcasing the range of public art by veterans.

The works include 3D sculptures and 2D murals as well as buildings designed or sponsored by veterans as artists, architects and arts patrons.

During the trail the host will draw attention to some of the many artworks and buildings by members of the veteran community. The tour will also touch on sites of historical significance to the military and veteran community. The trail showcases a selection of a broader collection of works by artists who all have a shared connection through their military service and their engagement in the arts.

Conversation will be encouraged between arts trail participants in the periods between encounters with public art.
