Kirsty and Tom hang up their screwdrivers.


The time has come for us to end our stewardship of Rooftop Art Space, it has truly been a wonderful experience.

Running an unconventional art space has been a great challenge but an incredibly rewarding one nonetheless. Exhibiting the work of both emerging and established Melbourne artists to such a broad audience has been an absolute pleasure and we hope we have contributed to the wealth of talent and beauty this city is so famous for.

Between September 2011 and May 2014 we have exhibited 52 artists in 37 shows.

A huge thank you to all of our friends and supporters especially Grant Gould, Amanda Brass, Spiro Manolopolous, Jon-lee Farrell, Dane Henwood, Dave Smiley, all the Rooftop staff, Three Thousand, Marianne Diaz, Gwynneth Budge and of course, all of the artists.

Please welcome with open arms the new curators/managers of Rooftop Art Space, Harley Jones and Lottie Phelan. Best of luck for your future shows!!!!!!!

Thanks again.

Kirsty Budge and Tom Budge
