Melbourne’s trams and vibrant arts scene come together each year in a travelling exhibition of local artists.

Previously called Transporting Arts, Melbourne’s Art Trams first came to life as hand-painted trams from 1978 to 1993. After a two-decades-long hiatus, the project was reinvigorated in 2013 as Melbourne Art Trams. Since then, we’ve partnered with the Department of Transport and Planning, Creative Victoria and RISING (previously Melbourne Festival) to continue the Art Trams legacy.
