Of course it wouldn’t be a Croft Alley Project without a party. So to officially open the new works in the lane-way. The Croft Institute will be opening at 4PM on Saturday the 19th of February. Featuring music by A-Sides(UK) and a showdown by Melbourne’s very own Heavy Innit and The Operatives collectives. Becks and Vodka Red Bull’s will be on sale all
day, with a host of tasty cocktails also on offer.
For those of you who live under a rock and don’t know much about the Ironlak Family. The family features some of the most talented urban artists on the face of the planet.
Melbourne will be lucky enough to have almost the entire Australian based collective present for this project. The works painted will be sure to feature in blogs, magazines and videos that circumnavigate the entire globe. So Melbourne count yourselves lucky
because you get to see it right in front of your eyes. Not to mention you can buy the artists work and take it home or to the office, so you can look at it everyday.
