I gave the Street Art workshop as a birthday gift to my 12-year-old daughter and 18-year-old niece. That had so much fun and without any experience produced a great piece of art. Thank you Blender Studios for making their day so much fun! Great gift idea!

Had so much fun that I wanted to do it again straight away!
George,our instructor, was fantastic !
He was very helpful and encouraging when help was needed and otherwise left us to just go for it.He seemed to really care that each one of us was getting what we wanted from the course.
We also got to take our own peice of aerosol art home ,which was awesome.
I highly recommend this course.
Thanks to George and Autumn and the Blender team!

Great to see creatives working together. Loved the diversity, the street art tour, and being able to grab some local merch to remind me of Melbourne.

The Blender Studios has moved from Franklin Street to Harbour Town in Melbourne's Docklands, as part of the emerging arts precinct. The front of the studio is a commercial art gallery, which has some interesting paintings and other art works. At the rear of the studio is a workshop cum studio which artists can rent. It is off limits to the public. The Blender Studios is worth a visit, entry is gratis. Harbour Town is undergoing a revival, aided by organizations such as the Blender Studios.

I am a resident of CBD fringe Melbourne and see alot of our well known street art sites like ACDC lane and Hosier Lane, but in this 2.5 hour walking tour, one of Blender Studios Artists will take you to another world entirely. Hard to explain the size and scale of some of the stencils, paperings, sculptures and paintings you not only see but experience though the eyes and experience of your guide...some 5 stories high, some just cms. You can touch and lean on many of them...I have been to alot of galleries around the world but found this art tour to be one of the most engaging experiences I have had anywhere in the world!
Every site was engaging and interesting. Along the way our guide David encountered some friends and artists and introduced us...It really is a whole new way of seeing my city. The city is enriched by these works and I think in the future the street art scene here in Melbourne will continue to grow and become legendary. Tour finishes with drinks and nibbles at the Blender studios. 13 on our group, which is the max no on any one tour. Plenty of opportunities to ask questions and David was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Remember alot of street by its nature is ephemeral, some here today and gone tomorrow so every tour will be different.... A great afternoon. Unfortunately I think they may not offer tours in languages other than English, but yu can always ask! Thanks!

A laneway tour for all ages. It was fantastic to receive knowledgeable insight from our legend of a tour guide - Dave.

I've been to Melbourne a couple of times before and had walked the laneways on my own - so I specifically joined the Blender Studio tours to learn more. I was not disappointed. I highly recommend booking a tour for a handful of your friends.

Upon reaching Blender Studios at the end of the tour, we received a warm welcome from Doyle and his team. It's amazing to be in such a creative space, which greatly differs from visiting an art gallery (fine or modern).
