The photos can speak for themselves. Wander the streets, you will see art. I particularly love Fitzroy.
I only saw a few museums, but I can recommend the National Gallery and the ACMI. Mostly free with high quality exhibitions. The National Gallery is a beautiful space, with the water wall and the stained glass ceiling the highlights for me. I also love how they promote art as accessible, with their doodle pad at the entrance, and and the drawing session I stumbled upon, where numerous people sat in a room with a lecturer with paper and pencils provided. Really enjoyed the Candice Breitz exhibit at the ACMI - fun and poignant video installations. In other parts of Federation Square we found other striking art - the woodsy constructs of Patrick Dougherty, and in the main square there is a video stream which sometimes shows shorts or music videos.
