The Gateway to Silo Art.

Begin your Silo Art adventure in Benalla, the gateway to North East Victoria's enchanting art trail. Marvel at the colossal murals on the silos, each telling a unique story that captures the essence of the region. The drive is approximately 2 hours depending on how long you stop at each town for. First stop…

1.Goorambat: The Goorambat silo art is a stunning mural depicting the endangered Squirrel Glider, created by artist Jimmy Dvate, transforming the grain silos into a vibrant canvas that celebrates local wildlife in North East Victoria.

2. Devenish: The Devenish silo art features a touching tribute to the Anzacs through a powerful mural, skillfully crafted by artist Cam Scale.

3.StJames. Continue your journey with a short drive to St James, where the talented Benalla artist, Tim Bowtell, has crafted a mural paying homage to Sir George Coles, the local figure behind the founding of Coles supermarkets in this charming town.

4. Tungamah: Next on your journey along the trail is Tungamah, where Sobrane Simcock made history as the first Australian female street artist to join the silo project. In 2018, she adorned the privately owned Tungamah Silos with dancing Brolgas and a Kookaburra, a masterpiece that was further enhanced in 2019. Sobrane's artistic touch extends beyond the silos, gracing the side of the pub and the information center in Tungamah.

North East Victoria's Silo Art Tour is not just a visual spectacle; it's a road trip experience waiting to unfold. Pack your caravan, hit the open road, and let the stories on the silos guide you through the heart of this enchanting region. Your canvas awaits!
