Christmas has come early this year... Streetadvent.com is giving you a very generous 25 artists, and they're not expecting anything in return.  They have been selected as part of this project which sees a selection of cities (mostly Melbourne) becoming a canvas for a festive present for your eyes.  A street art advent calendar!

Each day, starting yesterday, and running all the way up until the 25th - check out the website to see what new treasures have been unveiled.

Each work will be preceded by a set of clues, encouraging people to go out and find them.  Pictures can then be sent in and a the pieces will be tagged on Google maps so you can go and have a look for them if you wish once they've been revealed. Today's pieces (a set of four) can be found in Brunswick!

10 of the artists will have the opportunity to submit a digital print to be sold through the project's online shop - stay tuned for that side of things and get out there and start hunting art!

I'm kicking myself for being so slack and not getting involved.  Maybe next year...
