Where am I going and how to get to the workshop?!

The Rundle Collective Studios is located in Gawler Place near Rundle Mall. We have a glass door on the ground floor located next to the National Pharmacies and Paradigm Zone Arcade (opposite Daiso). At the front door you will need to be shown into the building by the artist - they will be there to show you in but also don’t hesitate to contact them when you arrive via phone or text on 0459 946 479. 

The Event Spaces

There are two event spaces at the Rundle Collective - the smaller space on Level 2 and the larger space on Level 3. We are usually using the larger space on Level 3 unless it is a private booking. Both are able to be made private by shutting the door to the main artist studios. We have accessible bathrooms on both levels. We can also access the kitchen on level 2 as needed.

Have any more questions? Feel free to reach out to Bianca at any time on 0459 946 479 or send us an email if you prefer to [email protected] - we accept bank transfer or direct cash payments on the day if you would prefer.

Yes we take private bookings with a one person minimum - please reach out to arrange a specific time/date. We can also talk about bigger groups as well if you would like!
