ArtVo Melbourne 2019 - Melbourne - Review

ArtVo’s newly repainted walls are now open to the public! ArtVo is a trick art gallery where children and their parents/carers can touch paintings and become part of the action by taking photos from special points on the floor close to the paintings.

The gallery first opened in 2016 where Kel and her gang from Melbourne Minor took some cool pics for us (see their review). Arto’s new instalment which required 15 artists, 1000 litres of paint, 800 hours to cover 80 new artworks comes with a new theme - Fantasy. Visitors can expect to be wowed when they explore the ocean, polar ice caps, space, the forest and more.

Kate and her littles ones popped into ArtVo recently to ‘try out’ all the art and managed to take some pretty impressive photos! A must do these holidays.

It’s hard to pick a favourite painting, so try them all! A little tweaking on the pics will be required after your visit but it’s all part of the fun.
