FINALIST ANNOUNCEMENT
The best street art experiences in the nation have been revealed with the announcement of finalists in the Australian Street Art Awards this morning.
Awards Director Liz Rivers said communities that promote their street and outdoor art understand that it is a unique landmark – an attraction that visitors can see in only one place - and that makes their destination immediately identifiable, highly attractive and a drawcard for art-loving tourists.
“Being shortlisted in these Awards further cements the reputation of these destinations as aspirational destinations for everyone who loves to discover visually stunning experiences,” Ms Rivers said.
With rigorous judging by tourism leaders, plus second-tier auditing and due diligence, being named as a finalist has the credence of the tourism sector.
