Fifth Lane Street Art

The Mackay City Centre is brought to life by vibrant street art and large-scale murals that transform laneways, building facades and public spaces into open-air galleries. Created by local and visiting artists, these colourful works celebrate creativity, storytelling and place, adding energy and visual interest to the heart of the city.

A new way to view art

Fifth Lane Street Arts Project is the culmination of 16 local artists and five visiting artist’s work in an outdoor gallery that has something for everyone.

The project started with a group of local artists with a vision to beautify one of the major lanes in the Mackay CBD and developed into a series of murals, paste-ups, digital art and community art, all fused with augmented reality technology made possible by using the Zappar app.

This project was made possible through funding from Mackay City Centre and council’s Activate My Place fund.
