Art and history are the last things you might expect to find on Chorus cabinets, but local artists have begun decorating the cabinets for a second time.

Council community arts adviser Marc Spijkerbosch said that was about two-thirds of the total cabinets in Rotorua.

A call for submissions from local artists had been well received, he said.
