Upstairs was finally launched last Sunday evening (14/10).  After months of sourcing great new designs, a lot of hard work from a wonderful group of family and friends, the beautiful gallery space has been transformed into a new and exciting retail space.

Expanding on the range of giftware downstairs, the space is literally bursting with tantalising gifts for friends, family or for you….

Upstairs will be open during October from Thursday – Sunday 12 – 4pm.  We will keep you posted for extended opening hours in November/December.

So come upstairs and have a look, you will be suprised!

Author : Sydney Smith (Text Publishing $32.95)

When Sydney Smith was nine, she thought about killing herself because of her mother’s cruelty.

When she reached puberty, her mother sexually assaulted her—a pattern repeated over the years.

By the time Sydney was twenty, she believed there were cameras behind every mirror in the house, that her mother could read her mind, that anybody who looked at her could see the bloody fantasies of murder and mutilation which tormented her.

How to escape? How to survive?

Enthralling and disturbing, brave and elegantly written, The Lost Woman is that rare memoir: a story which, once read, will never be forgotten.

Sydney will be launching her book at Brunswick Bound this Sunday 17th June 5-7pm
