Recently we had lunch at Union Kiosk in Howey Place off Little Collins Street in the Melbourne CBD. I left my wallet there and when I returned to pick it up, I found myself fascinated by so much street art in the small Presgrave Place off Howey Place. (Although Melbourne CBD is a straightforward grid, there is a network of lanes among this that are a little more complex.) As you can see above, it is like a street art gallery with lots of small framed artworks and brief words of wisdom and/or activism.
