Art inside and out
At 19 Wilhelmina Street in Troyeville, Spaza combines a small gallery with a home and garden. The collection includes paintings, sculptures and mosaic work, with pieces by young and emerging artists. Some works use recycled materials, and decorated iron furniture is among the objects on display.
The garden is part of the visit, with sculptures and other art placed among its outdoor spaces. The intimate scale lets you move between the gallery and garden rather than seeing the work in a single exhibition room.
A space for community events
Spaza's programme extends beyond exhibitions. Events have included poetry readings, theatre, comedy and live music, with performances in the garden. Workshops for people interested in mosaic art are also held at the gallery.
A vegetarian meal is served in the garden. Ask about food and any events when arranging your visit, and check the gallery's Instagram for current updates. The gallery operates by appointment, so contact it before travelling to Troyeville.
