Help save Irene Arts Space!
It's a self organised, not for profit arts space, and needs help.
Save Irene Warehouse!
Irene Warehouse was established in 2003, at a former lingerie factory in Brunswick, with the aim of providing affordable workspaces to a diverse community of artists, activists, musicians and performers.

They need to bring their space up to date with accessibility and safety standards, the costs of which the tenants (Irene Arts) need to share with the building owner. This upgrade will be good for everyone, and if they can't do it quickly, they'll be shut down by council.
My own thoughts: Obviously it would be better if such costs were covered by landlords, but that won't happen, so we need to treat it as a community cost for community benefit.
