New Zine in stock!


You may have noticed that we are now stocking a small range of artist made soft toys, prints, CDRs, cassettes, comics, zines and more alongside our regular art collection and scheduled exhibitions. You'll hear much more about this over the coming weeks, but first up we'd like you to know about a super awesome new zine, 'Poisonous Hearts.' This is a comic compilation made by Peter Kozak and a group of artists from Melbourne and Tasmania. We have a limited number for sale, or you can just pop in and read one as you relax in the gallery reading/relaxing seat.
