The theme for this year’s annual Open House Melbourne celebration is Collective City.
Open House Melbourne returns in 2023 with an exciting series of events, talks and tours from Saturday July 29 at 9:00am until Sunday, July 30 at 5:00pm.
Open House Melbourne is an independent organisation that fosters public appreciation for architecture and public engagement in conversations about the future of participating cities.
The weekend hopes to empower people with knowledge around the impact of good design decisions in the built environment.
Open House aims to ensure Victoria and its capital city remains a liveable and vibrant place now and into the future.
Maribyrnong locals have the option to explore six venues including Yarraville’s The Sun Theatre, Jack’s Magazine, The Cotton Mills, Heavenly Queen Temple, Ercildoune, and the ongoing West Gate Tunnel Project.
Footscray-centric walks will also be running as part of this year’s event, including Footscray Historical Wander and Footscray Market Foodie Tour and Tastings.
As the Footscray Town Hall continues to undergo development, council are encouraging people to explore the Town Hall virtually which can be accessed online.
Events across the two nights may also require bookings, more information can be found at Open House Melbourne Maribyrnong precinct.
