DETAILS OF TEMPORARY CLOSURE
We have received a request from Stonnington Council that Firestation Print Studio temporarily close to the public and this will be reviewed on 14 April. This closure includes access to members and artists. We had hoped to continue to provide a space of creative respite, but in the circumstances that surround us, in order to protect one another's health, more extreme measures for social isolation have become necessary. We will honour this request for closure as we respect that Stonnington Council is taking its efforts to support the government seriously and the safety of the community is their top priority. For any enquiries, please contact the studio via email as the office will not be attended during normal office hours, and we will work partially remotely. All of us at the Firestation Print Studio thank you for your support and wish you good health and strength during this challenging period. Let's hope for better days, and a re-opening in a month or so from now. Look after your neighbours, be kind, stay well.

The Firestation Print Studio is a dynamic hub of arts activity, with printmaking at its core, yet open to a wide range of projects and practices.
As a community based organisation, the curatorial strategy supports artists with diverse cultural and socio-economic backgrounds at various stages of their career, by providing a supportive environment in which to create and exhibit their artwork.
This is a unique element of the Firestation, as we provide facilities for all stages of artistic development in printmaking, from the inception and execution of artwork in the print workshop, to its presentation and display to the public in the gallery.
