Spanning 1,000 kilometres of unique landscapes, from green hilly pastures to wide, flat salt lake country, vast open plains to awe-inspiring outcrops, the PUBLIC Silo Trail has transformed towering grain silos across regional Western Australia into sites of world class art.

The trail traverses the agricultural towns of Northam, Merredin, Newdegate, Pingrup, Ravensthorpe and Albany, as well as Katanning, where silos, public walls and transformer boxes are adorned in colourful murals. Painted by internationally acclaimed artists and visible from afar and over treetops, the PUBLIC Silo Trail is art that tells a story - about people and place.

This innovative initiative by Perth cultural organisation FORM in partnership with CBH Group, has transformed Western Australia’s regional heartland into an open-air art gallery of epic proportions. See where the journey will take you!
