MESS is entering a new and exciting phase in the beating heart of the city. With support from Fed Square and a select group of passionate patrons, MESS is moving to the Atrium — right opposite the Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia.
This is a game-changing relocation that will allow us to better fulfil our mission of empowering all people to build an enriched life through music. Your donation will ensure that more people can access this bigger MESS!
“MESS is an amazing, warm and engaging environment for anyone who is passionate about sound and synths. I loved every minute.”
Camilla, MESS Student
