Urban Artist Directory

Our artist directory makes it easier for developers and businesses to find and connect with urban artists. It includes a wide range of artists, along with their contact details, so people can reach out to them directly. This helps artists get noticed locally and gives them chances to work on exciting development projects.

We welcome artists who live in or have worked in the City of Port Phillip, but you don’t have to be from the City of Port Phillip to apply. The most important thing is that you have experience creating public art.

Our aim is to showcase the rich and diverse art scene of Melbourne. If you’d like to be listed, just fill out our Artist Directory Request Form. We’ll let you know once your application is accepted. Feel free to share the form with other artists who might be interested.

This directory is mainly for developers working on projects worth more than $2 million, as part of the Percent for Art program. Developers often ask for artist suggestions, and this directory helps us stay fair by letting them explore artists on their own. It also helps us match artists with upcoming projects that suit their skills. Local businesses in Port Phillip looking for public art can also use this directory.
