The claisebrook village art trail
A special tour of Claisebrook Village's delightful artworks. The trail has been curated by local artist, Andrew Hawes. As a parent and a grandfather, he appreciates that families have different needs to other groups and has hand painted 160 small gecko sculptures that also act as a 'treasure trail'.
​
Follow the gecko pointers and pavement stickers for an artist's eye view of our Village. See how many geckos you can find.
Meet the Geckos
There are three distinct symbolic themes for the painted geckos along the artwork trail. The first symbolises the WA flag, the little rainbow chap depicts our Village's inclusivity and finally, the colours of our Indigenous art heritage.
​
Encourage little ones to look out for them as some are a little hidden and that is half the fun.
