Silo Art,

is bring much needed cash to some parts of Australia,


 in December 2015, Brisbane street artist Guido Van Helten created a gigantic mural spread across four disused silos in the town of Brim, 

 capturing the imagination of the town and inspiring a new project to create a “silo art trail” featuring murals painted on silos throughout Victoria's north-west,

  when completed sometime this year, the trail will cover 200 km connecting six small farming communities across the Wimmera-Mallee, 

 the project, which is being touted as the country's biggest outdoor gallery, is expected to draw thousands of tourists which should help the local economy and boost the morale of the communities hit hard by drought,

 the trail is due to be finished this year,

for more details and information visit the trails website, or follow progress on it's Facebook page, I wonder if other countries will start a silo trail?
