With plenty of laneways and exciting installations, Melbourne is known for its dynamic street art. And soon, a colourful street art festival is coming back to Melbourne’s south east. Mordi Village will transform into an open-air art gallery, decked out with murals from ten of the world’s most exciting street artists. Wall to Wall Festival will return on Saturday April 5 and Sunday April 6.
Wall to Wall festival
This festival has transformed regional Australian towns into outdoor art galleries since 2015. It’s curated and produced by the street art collective, Juddy Roller (Silo Art Trail).
Look forward to large-scale murals from Drez, Smug, Minna Leunig, Lauren YS, Bidju, Ellen Porteus, Claudio Mantuano, Sofles, Jason Parker and Jasmine Crisp.
“As we mark our tenth anniversary, we’re celebrating the over 110 stunning murals that we’ve brought to life across four different locations, and the inspiring legacy that endures long after the walls are painted,” said Juddy Roller Creative Director Shaun Hossack.
Join a guided art tour and learn all about the creative process behind the murals. For even more art, you can check out Mordi’s gallery, Le Studio, where you’ll see the works of 12 local artists. The whole family will have fun, with a paint-by-numbers mural, face painting and interactive workshops.
During the festival, there will also be market stalls showcasing produces from local businesses, including a St Felix Gin x Wall to Wall custom gin bottle designed by Drez.
Swing by the block party, and enjoy tunes from local DJs. If you’re hungry, you’ll find food trucks dishing out BBQ, burgers, chips, churros and more. Quench your thirst with brews from Mordialloc’s Wolf of the Willows, as well as Stomping Ground and 2 Brothers.
You’ll find the festival in the Mordi Village Arts and Cultural precinct, located along Lamana Road and the surrounding laneways. The festivities will run from 10am to 9pm each day.
