The Benalla Street Art Gallery wrapped up another great year, and even though the weekend buzz has died down, the best moments were all caught on camera.

From Friday, April 11 to Sunday, April 13, the Rose City turned into a giant canvas, as artists of all styles and backgrounds came together to decorate and reimagine the town.

Visitors and locals enjoyed a full day of activities, along with the chance to watch mural artists bring the town to life in real time.
