Flamingo...open 7 days

~ ~


We have been hysterical this week as after months of anticipation, The Flamingo Cafe opened it's doors on Winn Street, directly opposite The Outpost.

It's been joyous to have the girls back in The Valley -the energetic, effervescent Christina Hatzipetrou (The Main Squeeze,Yo Mama, Desmond & Molly Jones) and Annette Gillespie(the Main Squeeze, Cantina, Pearl Cafe) have joined forces to give us a genuine laneway cafe with the best damn coffee and delicious food around! The cafe itself is as cute as a button featuring paintings by Brisbane artist Stephen Mok and colourful Cartel stools on Astro Turf under the chirpy yellow and white striped awnings! Great to see The Flamingo Cafe has made it's home in an existing building with Brisbane history and character.

MARCH 19 | THE ZOO

The Nine Lives gallery has been a staple of Brisbane’s cultural hub since opening in October of 2008 - established and run by friends without the assistance of government grants or financially based initiatives.

During that time they’ve provided a temporary home for the work of many local, interstate and internationally based artists, as well as playing host to exhibitions from the likes of Semi-Permanent & Curvy.

The Nine Lives Gallery has now moved a short distance – retaining the original space above Mellino’s restaurant as office and studio space to creative agencies in need.

Of course, ‘help needed’ won’t include rolling up sleeves, toiling away on floors or painting walls. Just being in attendance for a party to end all parties.

To support Nine Lives Gallery pre purchase your Tickets from Oztix for
$10 + booking fee
oztix.com.au
or for $10 @The Outpost & NINE LIVES.

Proudly Supported by The Outpost, The Zoo, Vodka O, Pass Port, MOTH Media, Fourthousand.com, Bats Magazine & more
