Frankston Street Art, Frankston, Victoria

June 6, 2020

Do you love to explore lane ways in search of street art which adds life and character to an area? If you do, then Frankston is the place to be. Over the last few years some amazing pieces of art have popped up around the once deserted lane ways.

About the Frankston Street Art

In 2018 “The Big Picture Fest” came to Frankston and transformed the once plain city walls. This was repeated in March 2019 where local artists along with artists from New Zealand, Germany, France and Italy created awesome pieces of art.

If you go onto the Frankston City website you can read up on each artist and what the individual pieces of artwork represent. You can also download a Frankston Street Art map to ensure you don’t miss any.

Frankston City Council run monthly walking tours. During these 1.5 hr tours you will learn about the artists and the artwork as you happily snap away taking your photos. To book your tour online go to: visitfrankston.com/street-art-walking-tours.

Our Experience

As a child I grew up in the Frankston area and from a very young age always loved to take photos. A place where I got my first part time job after school and bought my first camera, the camera shop many years later still exists. “Teds Camera Store” has conducted photography tours of the street art. Frankston holds so many fond memories. To walk the streets today I’m filled with excitement as I turn each corner in anticipation of what I’m about to see and reminisce of what once was.

It was a delight to explore the lane ways of Frankston in search of the artwork with local traders stopping to have a chat about the art. Our favorite place to explore was down Gallery Lane where we found fairly new art which had been completed just 3 months prior.

We loved that all the pieces were unique and completely different to the next.
