Shire of Harvey is excited to invite artists to participate in our Mural Trail, which aims to enhance the visual appeal of our community and promote local talent.
The Shire of Harvey is committed to enriching the cultural and visual fabric of our community through public art that reflects the essence of our region. We believe that public art should not only enhance our surroundings but also celebrate the unique aspects of our locality.
In this spirit, we invite talented mural artists to submit their Expression of Interest (EOI) for a mural project that embodies the rich tapestry of our area, with a focus on local flora, fauna, history, people, and culture.
