Gasworks Arts Park is a community arts precinct that is sited within the remaining walls of the South Melbourne gas production plant. The parklands are surrounded by artists' studios, theatre, galleries and workshops which are in constant use.
The park is owned by the City of Port Phillip and leased to Gasworks management; a community based not-for-profit group which co-ordinates the annual program of events and exhibitions. The market started in January 2006 and co-ordinates fortnightly with Veg Out.
From across Victoria, around 50 stallholders bring them a slice of rural life and create a unique and very personal shopping expedition. Farmers' markets reflect the true seasons of local fresh food and reconnect the two ends of the food chain; producer meets consumer direct. Stallholders have a simple philosophy; that their goods are grown, made and known by those who sell them and that the quality of produce is of the utmost importance.
Just remember to bring your own bags as the market is plastic-bag free, and arrive early for a Gasworks BBQ breakfast.
WHEN: 8.30am -1pm, Third Saturday of the month
WHERE: Gasworks, 21 Graham Street, Albert Park
