It’s said a picture can paint a thousand words and the interpretive art found around the streets of Gore certainly is testament to that. Murals and street art delightfully combine to tell the history, and stories of Gore in an artistic way.
Locals and visitors alike can delve into the topics behind the eight murals that create the Gore Street Art Trail through Gore’s central business district. Starting at the Gore Visitor Centre, follow the trail from the beginning or mix it up and let your heart lead your feet. Grab a map from the visitor centre and enjoy the storytelling of each mural.
Spot some of Gore’s icons intertwined with reflections of its flora and fauna, the history of both settlers and mana whenua of the area and more, all wrapped up in stunning artistry. Learn about the locally and nationally acclaimed mural artists who created each of these pieces of art.
Take a stroll, take in the art and explore the stories of Gore without words. The Gore Street Art Trail is worth your time.
