Our Spaces

The Makers' Space - 99a Gellibrand Street
A warm, welcoming space in the heart of Colac — perfect for focused creating or relaxed community time. Here you’ll find:
• A printmaking press, sewing machines and easels
• Spacious worktables
• A full kitchen including an oven, fridge and cook top for casual get togethers for meals, tea and chats
• A lovely exhibition wall to showcase your work

• A Smart TV and projector for presentations and online workshops
​

​The Makers’ Shed – Colac Showgrounds - Bruce St

Our large, industrial‑style messy space — ideal for bold, hands‑on projects. You’ll find:
• A huge screen‑printing table
• Space to leave work‑in‑progress
• A kettle and fridge for quick cuppas

• Four large work benches for Clay and Leadlight work 
• a Natural Dyeing kitchen for indigo vats and eco-printing
• and Coming soon a Kiln!

Heads up — it’s a shed, so come rugged up in the cooler months (there are some heaters!).
