Until the above spaces are filled with regular hirers, they can also be booked for one-off or semi-regular events, workshops and meetings. Sundays and Mondays during both the day and evening are also available for one-off bookings.
Please Note:
This is a multi-use space. Eastside Gallery has near-constant exhibitions running, so those who hire the space must agree not to touch or move any artworks.
Any artworks not on the walls (eg sculptures) will either sit alongside the walls or be mounted towards one end of the Gallery. The minimum amount of clear floor space will be the striped area in the diagram (right), approximately 11m x 6m. The bench seat in the above photos can easily be pushed out of the way.
We are alcohol-free at all times and do not hire any of our spaces for parties of any sort.
The Artroom
A medium-sized room (4.5m x 6m) with good lighting, suitable for art and craft classes and other art activities such as life drawing (for example, there is a large mirror, frosted windows and curtains for privacy). Can accommodate about a dozen people around two trestle tables that can also be folded away for more floor space.
The Mini Gallery
A medium-sized room (4m x 5.7m) suitable for arts, crafts, music lessons, mini-exhibitions and community activities. Around 6 people can be seated at the table. Room contains an old piano.

- Children must be fully supervised at all times.
- The entire site is an alcohol-, drug- and smoke-free environment at all times.
