Abbotsford Convent - Industrial School — Abbotsford, VIC. Abbotsford Convent's Industrial School is a distinctive heritage event and production space dating to 1868, located within the Convent grounds at 1 St Heliers Street. The operator identifies two interconnected long zones with a combined area of about 299.8 square metres, distressed walls, a patinated surface finish, single-track lighting and overhead trussing in the southern zone. Three-phase power and basic AV/furniture hire may be arranged, but much of that equipment is an extra rather than an automatic inclusion. The room is wheelchair accessible, although some flooring is uneven. It suits exhibitions, performance installations, photography and events that benefit from an intentionally raw industrial character. Check the current availability, permitted uses, fees and equipment inclusions with the operator before making a booking.
