Yarra River Precinct Arts Walk
Melbourne is a city crammed full of art: traditional and contemporary; static and living.

The Yarra River Precinct is the hub of Melbourne’s artistic and cultural scene. Probably nowhere in the world is there such a concentration
of high quality visual and performing arts venues, quite apart from a very generous sprinkling of
public art and exciting architecture on display.

This short walk can take anything from 90 minutes to a whole day, depending on how much time you
want to spend at each venue. In fact, for the arts lover, it could provide an entire week of enjoyment and stimulation.
