Me and UooUoo: The RCH150 Anniversary Art Trail

20 January – 21 March 2021

To mark the 150th anniversary of The Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH) Melbourne, the RCH Foundation is bringing colour and creativity to the streets of Melbourne and Geelong with a spectacular public art trail.

Me and UooUoo (pronounced you-you) combines Victoria’s renowned passion for the arts and culture with a dash of outdoor adventure, encouraging communities to reconnect with their cities, and be active by visiting one hundred unique art sculptures.

Each UooUoo – individually designed by an Australian artist and sponsored by a Victorian business – has found a home in laneways, streets, parks and public spaces, forming walking trails throughout Melbourne and Geelong. When the art trail finishes, the sculptures will then be auctioned to raise funds for the RCH.

Join UooUoo on a colourful outdoor adventure to help raise funds for the RCH and change the future of paediatric healthcare for generations to come.

Me and UooUoo is a registered COVIDSafe Event and will be implementing COVID-19 safety measures throughout the art trail to keep our community safe.
