696 Opening - hats what I'm talking about

I'm becoming a big fan of a little store on Sydney Rd, Brunswick... 696 is a low commission based, free rental space, shop/indoor-outdoor gallery, which supports local, national and international talent and just cool knick-knackery in general.

Last night I sucked back a few VBs at their latest gig - Get Trucked. Dozens of artists were given a blank trucker cap to customise. All were sold at a flat rate, and proceeds will go to charity.

The small space was bursting with millinery magnificence

An outstanding piece by M2O
