I have loved street art since I was a child, seeing graffiti on coal trains and walls in Sydney. Street art has come a long way from the days of graffiti artists risking arrest for their art. I love the street art around Toowoomba and thought I would share some of my favourite pieces here.

Toowoomba city council decided to use funds for Graffiti removal to host a street art festival. The festival was a huge success and now street art created by world renowned artists attracts countless tourists, especially during the Street art festival and the Carnival of Flowers. After great success, the festival has been running each year and I am really looking forward to having a look this year.
