25.01.2022 To all you good folk doing it tough during the COVID crisis, we wanted to let you know we're still here! It's been an interesting few weeks as spaces close and people are confined to their home but we're buckling in for the wild ride. Stay tuned as we bring you news of our latest spaces, and look forward to the next iteration of what life after COVID might look like. In the meantime please enjoy Katie Chancellor's latest creation - Gang-Gang!

14.01.2022 Ballarat Evolve keeps growing! Here’s the latest space that has appeared at 59 Bridge Mall.

Pass by the windows to see the works of @holly_would6418. ... #Repost @holly_would6418 My shop/studio at 59 bridge mall is slowly getting set up. Will be open to the public soon.

11.01.2022 As is the way with Ballarat Evolve, sometime our locations evolve and attract new tenants leaving our artists without a home. While we are pleased to see the concept working and our city responding to the economic situation we are working doubly hard to make sure our artists have new homes to go to. Watch this space. In the meantime, get yourself down to see Jade Walsh in her shopfront at 85a Bridge Mall. Full hearts.

11.01.2022 Hey there everyone! Gorman has released it's people's choice for potential collaborators, and quite a few of the artists we know and love in Ballarat have put their name up!

Use it wisely! https://www.gormanshop.com.au/artcomp

10.01.2022 Changes are afoot! The lovely Paige from @oohlalemonade is moving on from her Ballarat Evolve location on the Bridge Mall and a newbie is about to take over. Watch this space! Literally! #Repost @oohlalemonade with @get_repost It's a dreary old day in Ballarat today. And today we say goodbye to our little show room in the Bridge Mall. With a baby on the way, we thought it was a good time to hand back the @ballaratevolve keys and we are so super excited that one of our tal...ented friends will be moving in. Watch this space for some bright, rainbow, plant-y goodness coming soon. . . . . . . #oohlalemonade #ballaratevolve #moving day #hireme #eventhire
