Thanks to all those who attended Professor Hudson's talks - welcome to our new friends.

Melbourne supporters - please keep Wednesday December 2nd free for the screening of our I Want to Live Here short film competition. First prize wins $3000 and the crowd will be asked to vote on the 'people's choice awards'.
Film makers have been asked to define the forces that lead to 'artists creating the scene, speculators wiping it clean'. This story of gentrification rearing it's head in Darebin defines ground zero for Melbourne's gentrification extremes.
On the night, pick up some handmade craft from the Melbourne Craft Cartel as the merry season kicks off.
