Bakehouse Studios Open Day Saturday

Always wanted to take a sneak peek behind the walls at Bakehouse? Here’s your chance. On Saturday 22nd of February 2025, Bakehouse Studios will open its doors for a special studio-wide Open Day event, running from 10am to 2pm.

With live music performances from Miss Kaninna, Kutcha Edwards & Friends, Rudely Interrupted and Magnets, the event will celebrate the success of Bakehouse’s 2024 inclusivity upgrades, including the installation of a studio elevator, ramped stage and other accessible facilities. It will also celebrate the completion of the 2024 First Nations Artist Residencies, and launch a new round of inaugural studio residencies to support artists living with disabilities, to take place throughout 2025. Proudly co-funding these endeavours, Bakehouse thanks Creative Victoria, Office for the Arts, Greater Western Water, Position Inc, Arts Access Victoria and The Push for their commitment to supporting equal opportunities in local music.

Featuring a luscious courtyard oasis, historic architectural features, and semi-permanent installations in art-filled studios, this a rare opportunity for a self-guided walkthrough of the unique inner city sanctuary.

Accompanying the gig will be local vendors with fresh banh mi & coffee, merch desks with goods by your favourite local artists, and stalls presented by community organisations.

The Bakehouse open day is free entry, with donation options & door prizes to be won.

“For many years one of our senior Songmen couldn’t access the upstairs rehearsal spaces. When I was asked to support & advocate for a new lift so that everyone had the opportunity to be in all the beautiful rehearsal rooms at Bakehouse, I was more than happy to do so. Now the lift is in, it’s time to celebrate inclusion for all.” – Uncle Kutcha Edwards

“Bakehouse Studios is creating access to a vital development and showcase space at the centre of the Australian Music scene. They have taken this significant step to ensure no one is left behind. We couldn’t be prouder to bear witness to their commitment and dedication to equity. Bakehouse shows us the true power music has in connecting us all.”  – Nikki  Zerella, Deputy CEO, Arts Access Victoria
