For Coburg Carnivale 2015 four very special musicians have responded by writing or selecting songs inspired by the Bates Building 1st Floor on Sydney Road. Suzannah Espie, Tobias Hengeveld, Kavisha Mazella and Rich Davies have been recorded on site by Myles Mumford (Sound engineer) and Leo Dale (videographer). Their work will be shared at the Coburg Court House on 25 September in form of a casual pop up installation event supported by projections by James Voller. 
Pop up event Friday 25 September, 7.30 pm at the Coburg Court House. Bookings are essential. Book NOW

Call Out to Coburg Community

Coburg Carnivale's unique local history project, If These Walls Could Talk, would like to hear from people who have stories, experiences and information about the Bates building Coburg 400 -404 Sydney Road.
Of special interest is its history as the Taj Mahal Dance Hall and the fresco artworks depicting North Indian and Middle Eastern scenes on the first floor.
If These Walls Could Talk is a project that invites artists to respond to the heart and soul of little known places in our community, for example historical buildings, private rooms and special spaces. Poets, photographers, song writers, musicians, film makers, painters reinterpret, reflect and celebrate so that we all can share in the secret histories of Moreland.
If you have something to share email Council's Public Art Officer, Dan Mitchell or call 9240 1171 or come to the Pop Up Installation event on 25 September
