Downtown Victoria bus shelters are getting the artistic treatment as original works of art are being displayed to brighten up the commute.

It's part of a pilot project in partnership with Pattison Outdoor Advertising, and will see up to 18 artworks by local, emerging artists.

The  art will be exhibited from now through to the end of June next year.

The featured works will rotate every 4 months.

The Commute public art exhibit was developed in response to input the City received during engagement on its Create Victoria Arts and Culture Master Plan last year.
