The artist Trevor Dickinson has become well known for his drawings of the shelters, created as part of a project to record all of them. An exhibition of Dickinson's work was hosted by the Canberra Museum and Gallery in 2018. An ACTION bus was also wrapped with some of Dickinson's drawings to coincide with the exhibition. In 2020 Dickinson released a 166 page book entitled Beautiful Bus Shelters of Canberra which includes his photographs of all of the bus shelters and paintings of 52 of them. The Canberra Times has credited Dickinson as having "almost singlehandedly elevated the bus shelters to icon status".
