The City of Yarra is inviting Expression of Interest for a two year tenancy in 12-16 Peel Street Collingwood.
Creative organisations and artist collectives are encouraged to apply, with the view the space will be used for the purposes of artist studios and/or as an administration centre of an arts organisation.
The City of Yarra has received funding support from the State Government’s Creative Neighbourhood Partnerships and Pilots program to investigate the efficacy of repurposing vacant heritage sites to deliver a secure, affordable creative workspace in an underutilised Council asset for low-income creative industry workers. This is a pilot project for two years.
The site
The site comprises a two-storey building within a park with a total approximate area of 1140m2. The property lease is only applicable to this building, with a total leasable area of 175m2.
There are basic amenities, such as toilets, tea points and a small wet area.
The ground level consists of three divided spaces and the upper level consists of a single space accessible by stairs.
