Creative Spaces
Creative Spaces is a program of the City of Melbourne’s Creative City branch which provides space for artists and creative practitioners to develop, practice, present and exhibit their work. Our work responds to the City of Melbourne Council Plan 2021-25 goals of building the Economy of the Future and celebrating Melbourne’s Unique Identity and Place. Creative Spaces temporarily manages the programming of Shop 54 on Errol Street in North Melbourne, which will see a variety of artists activate the space over the course of the coming year.
Creative Spaces connects artists and creative practitioners with spaces, promotes artists and their work, and provides an index of live and virtual events.
The website is an initiative of the City of Melbourne’s Creative Spaces program. It was first launched in 2008 in partnership with the RMIT Design Research Institute and Creative Victoria. Since then, the website has built an enormous rapport within the creative community as the central location for listing and searching for creative spaces. In 2020, a highly improved and expanded website was launched with longstanding partner Creative Victoria.
