Jake kindly donated his steady hand to the chalk work on the wall you see in backwater as you come up the stairs. check out the link below for yet more local adelaide artists https://www.facebook.com/events/531094330373787/permalink/587529368063616/

12.01.2022 It isn't just local, interstate musicians we stock in store, all the artwork on the walls here in Backwater is by local, DIY artists, and is all for sale too! So when you're in here and your heads buried in a vinyl bin, don't forget to look up, there might be something on the walls that takes your fancy! speaking of, two artists that share some wall space in Backwater have exhibitions this friday. check out "Clearly Labeled" at the Box factory, works by Belle and Gem! support local artists! <3 BW crew

08.01.2022 Our good friends Jake and Cass, both personal friends, and as a part of the wider Adelaide DIY community, have had to unfortunately bring to an end the Gallery Space of Tooth and Nail. its been an amazing few years of great exhibitions of local and interstate artists. thankfully the studio space remains and with more emphasis here stay tuned for lots of workshops, open days , and a whole heap of great art coming out of this creative hotspot! thanks guys for all the effort you've put in to this space and the Adelaide Art and DIY community! <3 BW
