Welcome to Arts House
Arts House is a City of Melbourne contemporary arts initiative. Each year Arts House presents a curated program of contemporary art featuring performances, exhibitions, live art, installations and cultural events.
Arts House operates as a multi-dimensional resource hub for artists – producing, programming, devising, supporting and funding. Work is presented across two sites, Arts House, North Melbourne Town Hall and Arts House, Meat Market.
Arts House values arts and culture that help create a world where people are actively engaged, aware and empowered to participate, politically and culturally, to make positive change.
Arts House acknowledges and respects the customs and traditions of Indigenous Australians and their special relationship with the land. The artists and organisers respectfully acknowledge that this program takes place on the land of the traditional owners of the Kulin Nation.
Arts House makes every effort to offer wheelchair and limited mobility access throughout the program. Please contact Arts House on (03) 9322 3720 for further information.

Green Tickets are back! For FREE entry to any of the performances of Marrugeku’s Burning Daylight, all you have to do is leave your car at home and choose a more planet friendly mode of transport. We will want to see your bike helmet or your public transport ticket and possibly check to see if you are perspiring!

Get in quick as we only have a limited number of green tickets available.
Even though the ticket is FREE you will need to book your seat in advance by emailing artshouse@melbourne.vic.gov.au with your name, and the date and time of the performance you will be attending. We would also like to know what emission free mode of transport you intend to use.
