Gasworks Creative Precinct

Gasworks Creative Precinct Gasworks is distinct in its commitment to multiple art forms – visual art, theatre, comedy, circus, cabaret, dance, live music, and family programming.
(201)

Gasworks is a home for creativity: a vital precinct where people gather for connection, belonging, and to experience the transformative power of art, nature, and culture. Located in Albert Park on the former South Melbourne Gas Plant site, Gasworks combines four hectares of parkland with two galleries, two theatres, artist studios, workshops, function spaces, and a café. Each year, over 100,000 co

mmunity members engage with creativity through 200 performing arts events, 30 visual art exhibitions, 15 artist studios, 12 farmers’ markets, over 300 classes and workshops, professional development pathways, access to spaces, and family and school holiday programs. It is also distinct in its support for sector development, providing pathways from entry-level to professional practice.

Block Party | Jina He with Harris Kwong | SCREENWORKS | Oct 12 - Nov 1

Block Party is an animated moving-image work that reimagines Melbourne's Lonsdale Street legal district as a playable urban panorama. Developed in collaboration with Harris Kwong, the work responds to the unusual spatial relationship among law courts, police, legal offices and nearby adult services.

Jina He() is a multidisciplinary artist, designer, and registered architect based in Melbourne. Her work spans public art, architecture, placemaking, animation, projection, light installations, and participatory urban experiences. She explores how civic spaces embody memory, identity, movement, and social tension, often employing playful visual systems, reflective surfaces, language, sound, and digital media to transform perceptions of the built environment.

SCREENWORKS is found in the hallway between the gallery and studio theatre.

RAWCUS – Power Line at Spring in The Park| | Sept 5 | 5 - 9 PM

Power Line is a new public performance from award-winning Rawcus Ensemble and Gippsland’s (it’s no) drama, with musician Zachary Pidd. An ensemble with and without disability forms a perfect line, then breaks it, climbing, crowding, dancing, bending the rules, all driven by a live percussive score. Playful, rebellious and unpredictable, it’s a piece about the systems that hold the ones we can reclaim and us.

Translations | Exhibition | Romy Durrant, Caitlin E. Littlewood, Indya Pearce and Samuel Woodman | Sep 1 - 27

The desire to process and understand the world around us is a relatable quest. Who decides what stories get told? How do we remember them? How do you render experience and what transforms it along the way? Translations sees Gasworks Short-Term Studio Program’s current and alumni resident artists Romy Durrant, Caitlin E. Littlewood, Indya Pearce and Samuel Woodman explore these themes.
